Summary

"Rose O'Connell is barely surviving. Her marriage is rocky; her son isn't fitting in at his new school, the prestigious Woolf Academy; and their tiny apartment in a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood can barely contain her family. As she struggles to make ends meet on her junior bank teller wages, Rose finds that as the only mom in a name tag and uniform at The Woolf's shiny school gates isn't easy. Not so for those in the elite and secretive Circle -- a tight-knit group of wealthy mothers led by the charismatic and glamorous Amala Kaur -- who rule the school. When the mysterious death of one of The Circle's members creates a vacancy, Rose dares to hope she could fill it and transform her life. Amala's shocking decision to invite an outsider into her clique provokes resentment among The Circle, especially when Rose's fortunes, self-esteem, and status start to soar. But Rose soon realizes the true price of being on the inside. Far from being a dream come true, The Circle proves to be her worst nightmare. Unlike the woman she replaced, can Rose escape with her life?"--, Back cover
