When Lili Lowe gets caught having an affair with her married boss, an admired politician, she finds herself at the epicenter of a scandal that could dismantle her life as she knows it. She turns, as many daughters would, to her mother. Yet Lydia Lowe is a former talent agent, and it’s not long before the whole world knows the name Lili Lowe.
As the spotlight brightens on Lili and her three younger sisters Stevie, Iris, and Katie, the Lowe women’s lives are changed in ways they could never have predicted. It’s soon clear that fame and fortune, comes with a price—and sometimes, the louder one’s voice (especially a woman’s), the more others will seek to silence it.
With a potent blend of spectacular style, compulsive voice, sharp social commentary, and ferocious heart, The Lowe Job is escapism with teeth: a contemporary book club novel for the modern reader looking for fresh fiction that is at once funny, sexy, incisive, and heartfelt.
If you mix Monica Lewinsky with the Kardashians, you will get a hint of how an intimate moment captured on film can be leveraged for fame and fortune.
Author Grace Alexander serves up a scandal in The Lowe Job as the eldest daughter, Lili, is caught in a compromising position with her married boss. Rather than wallowing in shame, she taps into her mother’s expertise.
Former talent agent Lydia Lowe knows how to manage reputations. As she sets off to make Lili a household name, her three younger daughters also feel the impact.
With smart, snappy dialogue, each character’s personality is on display as they land a family reality show. Nothing is off limits when the cameras start rolling.
From the tongue-in-cheek title to the way the women navigate being in the limelight, The Lowe Job provides a perfect summer distraction.
Grace Alexander’s debut novel, The Lowe Job, follows a family of sisters in the wake of a public scandal. Grace lives in London, very close by to her own family of sisters. Prior to writing The Lowe Job, Grace spent a decade working in the private equity industry.
