Review of 'Swiss Affair' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
A fun and quick read. The author beautifully captured the magic of Lausanne and the glamorous lifestyle of its inhabitants. I didn't quite understand the link between Hadley and Kristina--their friendship did not seem as deep or true as Hadley thought it was, and it didn't make sense that Hadley became so obsessed with finding Jacques after Kristina died. In general, Hadley seemed naive and unable to think for herself, and I found myself increasingly annoyed with her as the book wore on, especially in how she treated Joel. Still, I enjoyed the book overall and would like to read more from this author.
