When a surprising connection emerges between the two women, it sends them on a crash course that will upend everything they think they know – about themselves, each other, and the messy dynamics of privilege.__________________________'Bites into the zeitgeist then spits it out with gusto' Stylist'Twists that made me gasp out loud ...
