Publisher's Summary

What if women could get rid of their guilt?

Maya Patel has it allher own start-up, a sexy, doting husband, influencer status, and now, a new baby. But behind closed doors, Maya's drowning. Her newborn has taken a toll on her marriage, her best friend won't return her calls, and her company's hanging on by a thread. The worst part? It's all her fault. If she could just be a better boss, mother, wife, daughter, friend… Maybe she wouldn't feel so guilty all the time.

Enter: iconic #girlboss Liz Anderson, who introduces her to the "guilt pill," an experimental supplement that erases female guilt. It's the perfect antidote to Maya’s self-blame and imposter syndrome, and she can finally become the woman she’s always wanted to be. But there's a catch: the more pills she takes, the more ruthless she becomes. And just as her actions start to threaten all she's built for herself—and the family she's worked so hard to protect—she disappears, leaving behind only one burning question: How could Maya Patel, the face of all working mothers, abandon not only her thriving company, but her baby?

Electric, taut, and sharply observed, The Guilt Pill is a feminist exploration of motherhood, race, ambition, and how the world treats women who dare to have it all.
