This challenge we have a Visiting Librarian, Deb Horst (aka DJ) , and the book is Crimes Against a Book Club by Kathy Cooperman. Published in 2017, this is a humorous story of women who, desperate for money, decide to sell miracle face creams to wealthy book club members. Don't you love that cover?
