It's the summer of 2007, and the unsuspecting world is on the verge of sinking into the Great Recession. Coral Leven is visiting her wealthy friend Rose McCrary in super-upscale Palm Beach while attempting to finish her poetic thesis on the destruction of coral reefs. Across the Intracoastal Waterway from the McCrary mansion sits another vast estate, the site of weekend galas and wild parties. When Rose's cousin moves in next door to the party palace, Coral falls for him, and Rose finds out his neighbor is her long lost lover Gary Blass. But there's trouble in paradise. Doyle and Gary are involved with the Great Getzstein, a secretive billionaire with weird and dangerous passions. All That Glitters is literary but with a modern crime kick. A classic American love and loss story, Coral's affair with glittery Palm Beach tackles some of the most pressing issues of our time.
