Money. Power. Status. Scandal. At Templeton Manor, these aren’t luxuries. They’re weapons. The Steeplechase Weekend is the most exclusive invitation in England: a ruthless social proving ground where influence is currency and visibility is everything. If you’re on the list, you matter. If you’re not, you’re invisible. But this year, the façade is beginning to crack, and what lies beneath is far more dangerous than anyone expected.
Irreverent, excessive, and completely unfiltered, Posh is a razor-sharp satire of Britain’s elite, where nothing is sacred and no one is safe. If you like your fiction bold, biting, and unapologetically outrageous, this book is for you. You'll either love it or hate it.
