Description
When you are a mother with power, money, and status, is there any line you wouldn’t cross for your child?
The Admissions meets Big Little Lies in Do Not Admit, a book club black comedy of three prep school families locked in competition for a single spot at Stanford. When an attempted murder reveals the dark underbelly of their privileged community, one can't help but wonder if there's any line the mothers wouldn't cross.
Alicia is a tech giant, wealthy beyond compare. Kelly is a stay-at-home mother and Stanford legacy. Maren makes three: single, broke, and out of place among the rich and elite.
While all of their daughters are natural choices for Stanford, the school they attend can only recommend one student. As the competition heats up, an attempt is made on one of the girl's lives, and panic spirals within the community. Now the mothers have to decide if one of them is capable of murder…and even worse, capable of crossing every line to get ahead...
Advance Praise
"A shrewd comedy of manners... The exhilarating narrative speeds along to a satisfying conclusion. This is an unputdownable morality tale for our times." - Publishers Weekly, starred review
"An unputdownable and wildly entertaining debut full of shocking twists and turn... Fans of mother/daughter relationship novels won't want to miss this fast-paced take on mama bears and the cubs they will do anything to protect." -Library Journal, starred review
"Dobmeier and Katzman's timely debut piles twist upon twist and illuminates the many ways young people serve as stand-ins for their parents' dreams of success (and their fear of failure). Fans of domestic suspense about rich people behaving badly-and readers who couldn't look away from the Varsity Blues college-admissions scandal-will devour this one." - Booklist
