About
In this darkly comic story about how we value female labour-and don't-a new mother becomes embroiled in a dangerous mystery when her friend, a controversial entrepreneur, goes missing. When her daughter Lotte was born, Dani had welcomed the chance to be a stay-at-home mother. To be good at something, for once. But now Dani can't stop thinking about her seemingly healthy husband, Clark, dropping dead. Not because she hates him (not right now, anyway), but because it's become abundantly clear to Dani that if he dies, she and Lotte will be left destitute. And then Dani discovers The Temple. Ostensibly a yoga centre, The Temple and its guardian, Renata, are committed to helping people reach their full potential. And if that sometimes requires sex work, so be it. Finally, Dani has found something she could be good at, even great at; meaningful work that will protect her and Lotte from poverty, and provide true economic independence from Clark. Just as Dani is preparing to embrace this opportunity, Renata disappears. And Dani discovers there might be something else she's good at: detective work.
