A college admissions scandal threatens to topple the lives of two sisters navigating the suburban jungle in this sharply observed novel from the #1 bestselling author of The Devil Wears Prada and When Life Gives You Lululemons.
Peyton Marcus seems to have it all: She's the co-anchor of a hit morning news show; her husband, Isaac, runs a successful business; and her daughter, Max, is headed to Dartmouth. Peyton's sister, Skye, is about to finally achieve her mission to open a home for academically gifted, underprivileged young girls, with a little help from Isaac's business associates. All seems to be going according to plan--until Isaac is arrested in an Ivy League admissions sting, jeopardizing everything the sisters have worked so hard for. But that's not the whole story. When dark secrets in their posh world--rife with social landmines, barre classes, and Botox--come to light, Peyton and Skye are forced to reckon with the dreams they'd had when they were young and start to wonder if the compromises they made to get there were worth it.
With her signature satirical style, sharp wit, and clear-eyed insights, Lauren Weisberger has written a timely, entertaining novel about what it means to have--and lose--everything. When the chips are down, can you count on your sister to stand by you?
