Addiction, reinvention, and the chaos of toxic workplaces—all wrapped in biting wit and unpredictable turns…Sipos's prose crackles with energy, packing more into a single sentence than some manage on an entire page.—Booklife at Publisher’s Weekly
Freshly rehabbed and on the run from scandal, Jaycee Grayson did not come to play.
A disgraced kids entertainment exec with no filter and nothing to lose, she’s followed the hollow promise of sisterhood to Littleburgh’s world-famous doll empire. Confronted by plastic smiles and pastel perfect power plays in a suspicious web of secrets and lies, Jaycee rallies fellow outcasts in a billion-dollar race for the truth. Nothing is as it seems—not the town, not the empress behind the lucrative legend, and definitely not the Prairie Karens running the show.
But with cold news from home and new romance as reliable as Wisconsin’s weather forecast, Jaycee faces the ironic choice between embracing her newfound family of frontier misfits and exposing a showcase of female hypocrisy at her own peril. With one foot in calamity and the other in courage, she’ll risk her sunny spirit and shaky sobriety on a career-killing quest for purpose and belonging on a frozen plot of tundra she couldn't pick off a map.
Satirizing performative feminism and corporate fairy tales with stiletto-sharp sarcasm, this darkly comic literary thrill ride from Hollywood to the heartland is as fearless as its heroine—with a blockbuster finale readers won’t see coming!
