Utterly addictive, beautifully written and perfectly paced. Olivia's ability to capture the voice of younger women, examining consent and power dynamics is on point' Poorna Bell, author of In Case of Emergency 'Olivia Petter has written the millennial Valley of the Dolls and, like that book, Gold Rush is destined to be both a hit and a classic' Emma Forrest, author of Royals 'Brilliant in its specificity but universal in feeling, Gold Rush perfectly captures a moment and mood that will resonate with so many women who lived through the last couple of decades and are still wondering why we put up with so much. Powerful, nuanced, richly drawn and skilfully done, it will stay with me for a long time' Lauren Bravo, author of Preloved 'One to put on your summer books list right now.
