And Martin--Ben's erstwhile best friend--who is just happy that Fliss's memorial gives him the chance to re-enter the Fitzmaurice orbit, seeking revenge and acceptance. He can't help but notice that Ben's wife, Serena, seems to have discovered in middle age that her privileged existence is more like a gilded cage. Or that Ben and Serena's daughter Cosima has become an environmental activist fighting against everything her parents seem to stand for--a pivot her late aunt would've applauded. Where does Richard Take--Ben's disgraced colleague, determined to make his big comeback, fit in? And circling them all is Andrew Jarvis and his money: Has he been their loyal hero, or the one who has thrown his weight around just to keep them all in check? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDelivering incisive commentary on the hypocrisies of the elite, this juicy ensemble drama about old friends and dazzling wealth perfectly captures the uneasy balance between personal ambition and collective responsibility. \u003ci\u003eOne of Us\u003c\/i\u003e is a page-turner with teeth, a mash-up of \u003ci\u003eThe Wedding People \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eSuccession--\u003c\/i\u003edarkly comic and cutting, as well as unexpectedly hopeful.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElizabeth Day\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Party\u003c\/i\u003e and other books, as well as one of the most influential podcasters at work today.
