This fast-paced thriller flies by as it describes the high-pressure game of white elephant played at a flailing real estate agency, with plenty of twists and turns and flashbacks to keep you guessing right up until the end. Told from the points of view of the husband and wife head agents and a visiting young pop star who is being shown a house and unwittingly walks into this holiday game which has turned deadly. Snack on this book while the cookies bake.
