San Fernando Valley native Iris Hedge left her husband and traded coasts for the job of a lifetimeβonly to lose it in a New York minute. Now unattached, unemployed, and broke, she dreads her loneliness and imminent credit card billsβ¦ until sheβs offered an exciting, new gig: spying on a possibly cheating, uptown husband named Steve.
Soon Iris is trading her business wardrobe for the stalker chic of sweatpants and dark eyewear, and navigating the hazards of urban surveillanceβCentral Parkβs fascist dog- walking rules, rejection from exclusive boutiques, and a series of unnatural hair colors. But as she steps into uncharted territory, she wonders if her life will ever go back to normalβand if normal is anything sheβll ever be happy with.
