BOOKLIST
“
Death in the Downline is entertaining, funny, and page-turning. A compassionate look at the reasons women get roped into these schemes in the first place, even the ones who do the unthinkable to keep the ruse going.
Emily Lynn Paulson, author of Hey, Hun
“
Equal parts entertaining and unsettling, Death in the Downline is a page-turner that expertly shines a light on the dark world of MLMs and social media. . . . This is a mystery that feels as compelling as it does timely.
Olivia Muenter,
best-selling author of Such a Bad Influence
