Publisher's Summary

From Amina Akhtar comes a viciously funny thriller about wellness - the smoothies, the secrets, and the deliciously deadly impulses.

Lifelong New Yorker Ronnie Khan never thought she’d leave Queens. She’s not an “aim high, dream big” person - until she meets socialite wellness guru Marley Dewhurst.

Marley isn’t just a visionary; she’s a revelation. Seduced by the fever dream of finding her best self, Ronnie makes for the desert mountains of Sedona, Arizona.

Healing yoga, transcendent hikes, epic juice cleanses...Ronnie consumes her new bougie existence like a fine wine. But is it, really? Or is this whole self-care business a little sour?

When the glam gurus around town start turning up gruesomely murdered, Ronnie has her answer: all is not well in wellness town. As Marley’s blind ambition veers into madness, Ronnie fears for her life.

Weird pauses

There are weird pauses throughout the audio, it’s distracting. Story is good, although the twist was pretty obvious. Good beach listen.

Not what I expected

It was just ok… took me a long time to get through it… I drive a lot (on average about 3.5 hours a day)
And I usually listen to books… I was excited to start this one and then it literally took me a month to get through because I just simply didn’t want to listen to it…
