A glittering, razor-sharp dive into the dark underbelly of high society, Nobody’s Fault by Nancy Holmes delivers a gripping tale of privilege, obsession, and scandal. Inspired in part by notorious real-life aristocratic crimes, the novel pulls back the velvet curtains on the international jet set to reveal the rot beneath the polish.
Behind the manicured estates, private gaming clubs, and lavish galas lies a crumbling marriage stretched to its breaking point by reckless gambling, toxic pride, and bitter entitlement. When charming decadence spirals into desperation, the result is a shocking act of violence that shatters a family and captivates high society.
Holmes—a seasoned chronicler of the rich and infamous—writes with an insider’s eye for authentic detail, cutting dialogue, and escalating psychological tension. Nobody’s Fault is an addictive, slow-burn portrait of wealth without conscience, perfect for readers of Dominic Dunne, Dominick Dunne-style true-crime fiction, and glamorous 1980s/90s domestic drama.
