Dead Money in the New York Times

jakobkerr

I am thrilled to share that the New York Times' Book Review posted a wonderful review of Dead Money in this morning's edition.

"Kerr’s terrific debut, which appears to be a traditional whodunit but is really an unpredictable nesting-box of surprises . . . Kerr, who worked at Airbnb for a decade, brings an insider’s knowledge and a satirist’s sensibility to the vanities and delusions of Silicon Valley. Describing Canon’s decision to pay for his $9 million house in cash, he observes that “tech founders would sooner use Windows than be saddled with something as banal as a mortgage.” Mackenzie — 6-foot-2, full of secrets, constantly underestimated — is the most interesting character of all, her surprising back story unfolding in a series of interstitial chapters."


Head to the NYTBR for the full review!


Thank you for your support of Dead Money! It's incredibly gratifying (and surreal) to see it reviewed In a publication as prestigious as the New York Times Book Review.


More to come!
