A Novel

The Fortune Seller

Rosie is solidly middle class but years for more. Especially since all her friends at Yale, fellow equestrian team members, are wealthy. Right before her senior year, Annelise is invited to live with them. Annelise is an enigma with her rich clothes, tarot-reading habits, and beautiful riding. Then, friendships begin to splinter until a tragedy threatens the entire group.

While working for a hedge fund right out of college, Rosie unearths more than she bargained for about Annelise and her friends. Can she set things right?

This is a beautiful coming-of-age story set in the early 2000s. I loved the atmosphere, the tension between the haves and have-nots, and the examination of desire and ambition. The audiobook was exceptionally well done.
