Amidst a balmy March evening, Kata's husband's superyacht transforms into a realm of glamour and ambition. Orchids, champagne, and famous name cards adorn the deck, while tensions simmer beneath the surface. Through the lens of an unreliable English tutor, Queen K unveils the power dynamics within an extraordinary family, their once-protected haven threatened by encroaching world politics. Sarah Thomas weaves a tale of opulence, resentment, and intrigue, creating a world where acceptance comes at a cost. Reviews'Beautifully crafted and compelling.

This book pulls back the curtain on the lives of the ultra-rich and reveals a world fatally distorted by greed and arrogance; it navigates questions of class and complicity with a rare deftness' - Keiran Goddard, author of Hourglass.
