书籍简介

这部由《纽约时报》畅销书《绽放》作者创作的黑暗故事，将《菜单》与《准备好了没》巧妙地融合在一起，讲述了奢华与骇人听闻的暴力冲突。节俭的时尚达人黛兹·莱恩并不想和帕特里克·拉斯金约会；她只想见见他的母亲——《新潮》杂志的主编。当拉斯金邀请她参加在祖屋举行的复活节大聚会时，她确信自己能够忍受拉斯金的傲慢，抵挡住他的挑逗，并终向玛丽·考菲尔德-拉斯金申请实习机会——以她的出身，她不可能通过常规的求职途径获得实习机会。

当他们抵达岛上的豪宅时，黛兹惊呆了——她从未见过1%的富人是如何过着如此荒唐、不要的奢华生活的。但当所有家庭成员都登上岛屿，渡轮开走后，事情却发生了逆转。几十年来，罗斯金家族让他们的仆人签署了基本上是契约奴役的合同，由于没有什么可失去的，仆人们决定他们获得自由的途径就是永远摆脱罗斯金家族……

The Menu meets Ready or Not in this dark tale of opulent luxury and shocking violence from the New York Times bestselling author of Bloom. Thrift fashionista Dez Lane doesn't want to date Patrick Ruskin; she just wants to meet his mother, the editor-in-chief of Nouveau magazine. When he invites her to his family's big Easter reunion at their ancestral home, she's certain she can put up with his arrogance and fend off his advances long enough to ask Marie Caulfield-Ruskin for an internship someone with her pedigree could never nab through the regular submission route.

When they arrive at the enormous island mansion, Dez is floored-she's never witnessed how the 1% lives before in all their ridiculous, unnecessary luxury. But once all the family members are on the island and the ferry has departed, things take a dark turn. For decades, the Ruskins have made their servants sign contracts that are basically indentured servitude, and with nothing to lose, the servants have decided their only route to freedom is to get rid of the Ruskins for good…
