The Glass Hotel
by Emily St. John Mandel
2020
From Wikipedia: "A Ponzi scheme is a form of fraud that lures investors and pays profits to earlier investors with funds from more recent investors."

Ros @ Scallydandling about the books, where she does her round up of Booktube Prize 2021 1st Round Fiction Group D, where The Glass Hotel figures (spoiler, she finds the ghosts 'a bit twee'):

I'm not involved with the Booktube Prize and it is a complete accident that I happened to read one of the books under consideration.
My review of 'The Great Gatsby' is just before this one, but for the sake of one click convenience:
