Description

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. A fresh, fierce and furious thriller of working motherhood, female friendship and what it means to be a wife, mother, colleague, woman Sloane, Ardie, Grace, and Rosalita have worked at Truviv, Inc. for years. The sudden death of the CEO means their boss, Ames, will likely take over the entire company. Ames has always been surrounded by whispers about how he treats women. Those whispers have been ignored, swept under the rug, hidden away by those in charge. But the world has changed, and the women are watching this promotion differently. This time, when they find out Ames is making an inappropriate move on a colleague, they've decided enough is enough. Sloane and her colleagues' decision to take a stand sets in motion a catastrophic shift in the office. Lies will be uncovered. Secrets will be exposed. And not everyone will survive. 'A delicious and timely thriller' New York Times Book Review 'A workplace murder mystery that happens in today's #MeToo era. It's honest, timely and completely thrilling - I was so surprised to find out who the murderer was!' REESE WITHERSPOON 'If you love BIG LITTLE LIES try WHISPER NETWORK. Part workplace thriller, part feminist call to arms...It's THE FIRM meets 9 TO 5' Grazia 'Fast, sharp and funny' New York Post
