Reading Group Discussion Guide:

  1. How do you think the novel would have been different if it had had different settings rather than London and New York? How much do these influence what takes place?
     
  2. Would you like to take part in a reality TV show like Hotel Manager? What do you think about the nature of ‘celebrity’ in the book? Are there any positives to this?
     
  3. Discuss the central theme of revenge and how the desire for vengeance affects the characters in the novel.
     
  4. There are several instances of addiction in the novel (for example, alcohol, drugs, gambling, money, lust). Discuss the characters’ different ‘addictions’ and the consequences of these vices.
     
  5. Marital abuse is a harrowing part of the story. How much do you think that Elise is a victim of herself, as well as being the victim of her brutal husband, Bill? Do you think she punishes Bill enough?
