WINNER OF THE EDGAR AWARD • “A gripping thriller that pulls back the curtain on the secret world of tech billionaires.”—Time (100 Must-Read Books of 2025)

“A stone-cold banger of a novel—a twisty journey through Silicon Valley’s dark side, wrapped in a stunning mystery package with some wild surprises along the way.”—Blake Crouch, New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter

A WASHINGTON POST AND CRIMEREADS BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

DON’T CALL ME A FIXER. THIS ISN’T HBO.

As the unofficial “problem solver” for Silicon Valley’s most ruthless venture capitalist, Mackenzie Clyde’s an expert at wrangling tech bros and their multimillions—even as her own shot at a windfall remains just out of reach.

But now she’s playing for higher stakes. Because the lightning-rod CEO of tech’s hottest startup has just been murdered, leaving behind billions in “dead money” frozen in his will—and Mackenzie’s boss is the company’s chief investor.

With a fortune on the line and the official investigation going nowhere, it’s up to Mackenzie to step in and resolve things, fast.

Mackenzie’s a lawyer, not a detective. Cracking this fiendishly clever killing, with its list of suspects that reads like a who’s-who of Valley power players, should be way out of her league.

Except Mackenzie’s used to being underestimated. In fact, she’s counting on it.

“Terrific . . . filled with jaw-dropping twists and turns . . . an unpredictable nesting-box of surprises.”—The New York Times Book Review Krimis Privatdetektive Thriller

A few holes in the plot at the end, but overall these are minor compared to the strengths of the novel as a whole. Very entertaining and fun.

Well-written, great observations about Silicon Valley and good plotting with a few twists

Good story with enough twists to keep engaged. Main character strong and relatable.
Satisfactory ending.

The irrirating tone and voice of Elenore character. Really got on my nerves. Too breathy and slow. Torture.

This was fun! Okay, the main character is rather despicable (though unlike the other - even more despicable - characters she at least has a backstory that explains how she became so ruthless and unscrupulous), and the plot takes so many unrealistic turns, I had to suspend a huge amount of disbelief. But (un)realistic or not, "Dead Money" is a fast-paced, highly entertaining thriller. The ending was a bit of a letdown (not sure if it was meant to be a big, unexpected twist?), but for the most part I enjoyed the book. And considering how often we see on the news that normal rules don't apply for the super-rich (not only, but especially in the tech industry where a few million dollars are nothing but loose change) it might not even be as far-fetched as I thought. It's the author's debut novel, and I'll definitely look out for more from him.

Interesting story, nice twists, entertaining field and business view. Not the best crime mistery, but very good overall. I didnt like the narrator though. Some voices were annoying.
