About this listen
It-girl Estella Aubergine is everything Pippa and Bidi are not: wealthy, popular, influential—missing. But all that could change. Once they find Estella and collect the life-changing reward money her reclusive mother is offering, the overdue bills on Pippa’s family deli will be paid off and Bidi’s summer internship rejections will turn into yeses. They’ll be local celebrities.
Stepping into Estella’s upper-class world to get answers requires navigating razor-sharp compliments and airbrushed lies from Estella’s snobbish friends at Beaumont Academy. Even the administrators at the prestigious school seem to know more than they let on.
The further Pippa and Bidi dig, the more they begin to question themselves, their, futures, and their own friendship. And as each day passes with no solid leads about Estella’s disappearance, the girls hold onto one truth: the grass isn’t always greener on the other side.
