Synopsis

Zachary Arlen Post, an associate editor at IT magazine, has his eye on a promotion. His mind, however, is more engaged in figuring out which of the two attractive women in the office he should pursue -- the sweet, earnest Ivy, or Leslie, a classy, English ice queen with a hyphenated last name. When Mark, an eager young man, joins the staff, Zack knows that he has met his nemesis. Mark works hard and plays the power game like a pro, demonstrating the all-important networking skills Zack has never mastered. Soon enough, Mark becomes Zack's boss and Zack knows that only desperate measures will save his own career. From fabricating a fabulous resume to back-stabbing with finesse, this deliciously wicked novel reveals what it takes to make it to the top of the masthead at one of the hottest magazines in the business.

Media Reviews
Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Heller shows himself a brilliant social satirist not just of the magazine business but of human nature....A delightful, smart, twisted commentary on ambition, careerism, love, and modern life by the most likely newcomer since Nick Hornby to make you laugh out loud on a bus.
