Charlotte Vassell recommends

Service (2026)
Lauren Mooney
"Less 'noblesse oblige' and more 'noblesse takes the piss'. 'Service' is the anti-Downton Abbey. It takes the glitz and the glamour out of grand country houses and the parasitic upper class that haunt them. Deference is dead."

Her Two Lives (2024)
Nilesha Chauvet
"Powered by the twin engines of female rage and sexual repression Chauvet has created a potent thriller for the post-Me Too age."

Death in the Air (2024)
Ram Murali
"A romp of a whodunit, poking fun at the uber wealthy whilst calmly meditating on both the horror of Partition and identity in a globalized world. I rattled through it. Ro is a very charming lead character indeed!"
