Orchid & The Wasp by Caoilinn Hughes

A cunning, ambitious young Irish woman rides the ripples of the financial crisis from Dublin to London and New York, hustling through the art and finance worlds to claw opportunity from chaos. As she schemes and shape-shifts, she confronts the wreckage of her parents’ choices while trying to protect her vulnerable musician brother. The result is a sharp, darkly comic portrait of ambition, family loyalty, and the slippery ethics of survival.
