Would you call Alice Teakle a stalker? Or just someone
with an, um, healthy obsession with golden girl Polly
Linley Dawson? No one much notices Alice: not her boss,
not the neighbors, not even her mother. Besides, everyone
follows Polly: her business selling high-end lingerie you
can only imagine her wearing, her all-over-the-social-
pages marriage to movie director Humphrey Dawson, her chic
looks, her wardrobe. Alice just follows her a little
more….closely.
Yet one Manhattan autumn afternoon, when Alice loses her
job and starts to follow Polly, she stumbles on the object
of her attention sprawled dead on the floor of a boutique
and is forced to become truly invisible. Because she’s
accused of murder. But can another obsession help save
Alice? Charlie is Alice’s longtime unattainable crush.
He might be able to help her out of the mess she’s in…in
return for a favor or two, that is. But how will Alice
find out if Charlie is really the man she thinks he is?

Re: Following Polly
loved this book--story is fun to read and a hilarious adventure (Denise Holcomb 5:01pm November 16, 2011)
I guess it's natural to want things that others have but there is a huge difference between benign and morbid envy. This sounds like a book that is chock full of suspense and humor. I look forward to reading it. Thanks for the great review. (Connie Fischer 9:07pm November 16, 2011)
