Madness Under the Royal Palms: Love and Death Behind the Gates of Palm Beach

This book is more of a gossipy tell-all than the true crime book I was hoping it was.The author does talk about public figures such as Trump and Joel Epstein (convicted of raping young-age girls and a friend of Trump) but it's mainly about how Palm Beach denizens came to live there and how big their mansions are. Parts of this book are almost too bizarre to be believed. Several times I thought to myself, " I can't believe how stupid the ultra-rich are"
