~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the bestselling tradition of Paula Froelich and Candace Bushnell comes a dishy novel about the secrets of the rich and privileged, featuring four yoga friends who stumble upon a murder at a tony Greenwich, Connecticut party - and have to solve the crime or be implicated themselves.
When Coco Guthrie and three other Greenwich locals appear at THE Halloween party of the season, they're chagrined to discover that they've all come in the same costume - Sarah Palin. But that's hardly the worst thing to happen that evening. While exploring the grounds of their hostess’s estate, they stumble upon two people engaged in a struggle. Before they know it, the fight has turned deadly - and the attacker is revealed to be a local politician! The four Palins return to the party, swearing each other to secrecy, but when each of them receives a mysterious warning the next day, it becomes clear that they were spotted - and are in serious trouble.Now the unlikely foursome must work together to uncover the truth behind the murder - and where can four people from different social circles mingle unnoticed? At an early morning yoga class, of course! Each member of the 8:30 Yoga Club is hiding secrets of her own, but they soon discover that good friends can protect you from even the nastiest of scandals.

Teaser:
“Totally incapable of self-restraint, Olivia released a highpitched "Woo, woo, woo, woo!" jerking the mayor out of his nightmarish task in time to see the surreal specter of four faces of Sarah Palin frozen in horror at his window.”
What's your teaser today?
Sounds intriguing! I think that's the only way I could ever drag myself into a yoga class at 8:30 in the morning... hmm... or maybe I'll just end up in jail? :P
