Description
From the author of Station Eleven, The Glass Hotel is the story of the lives caught up in two very different tragedies: a woman disappearing from a container ship off the coast of Mauritania and a massive Ponzi scheme imploding in New York, dragging countless fortunes with it.
The New York Times bestselling novel, from the author of Station Eleven.

Vincent is the beautiful bartender at the exclusive Hotel Caiette. When New York financier Jonathan Alkaitis walks into the hotel and hands her his card, it is the beginning of their life together.

When Alkaitis's investment fund is revealed to be a Ponzi scheme, Leon loses his retirement savings in the fallout, but Vincent seemingly walks away unscathed. Until, a decade later, she disappears from the deck of one of Leon's ships . . .
