Beskrivning

Drew thought she was destined to rise above her small New Jersey hometown and make it as a serious journalist in New York City. But now she's back in Clearfield, pushing thirty, newly single, and living with her father. After a chance encounter at the grocery store, she reconnects with her ex-best friend, Steph, who married young and never left their hometown. But Steph looks...good. She's tanned, clear-skinned, and glowing. She drives an expensive car and wears only name-brands. What's her secret? A multi-level marketing scheme called LuminUS that's taken the ladies of Clearfield by storm. With nothing left to lose, Drew gets sucked into this glamorous world of downlines, sales parties, and girls' trips. But when a LuminUS distributor dies under mysterious circumstances, can Drew uncover the dark secret at the heart of the organization and save her best friend before it s too late? Laugh-out-loud funny and a pitch-perfect skewering of pyramid schemes, Death in the Downline is a page-turner that will have readers nodding in recognition and cheering for Drew until the cathartic conclusion.

A New York Post Best Book We Read in January 2025“Abrams perfectly skewers the MLM movement. . . . A funny, spot-on mystery that will appeal to genre fans and MLM-skeptics.”—Booklist “Packed with biting humor and sharp social commentary, Death in the Downline is a juicy treat for mystery fans and MLM snarkers alike.”—Jordan Snowden, Seattle Times“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 “A page-turning and timely deep dive into the dark underbelly of MLMs.”—Tracy Dobmeier and Wendy Katzman, coauthors of Girls with Bright Futures
