Fay has spent her career picking apart the lies. As an academic, she’s studied how multi-level marketing preys on women’s hopes—weaponizing friendship, ambition, and self-worth to sell the illusion of success. So when she’s offered a grant to research Bribre, a billion-dollar clothing empire run through parties and social media gloss, she says yes. Not for the brand. For the reckoning.
She tells herself she’s immune. But Bribre doesn’t just sell clothes. It sells sisterhood—twisted, toxic, and impossible to escape. And behind the smiles and hashtags, Fay finds something uglier than she ever imagined: manipulation passed off as mentorship, cruelty dressed as confidence, and loyalty bought in blood.
The deeper she digs, the more her team fractures. Women disappear—some quietly, others violently. And Fay is left with a choice: stay silent and stay safe, or burn it all down, knowing full well she might go with it.
Because Bribre isn’t just a company. It’s a machine built to feed on women.
Bribre is the furious second installment in the Frozen Wasteland series. If you crave ominous atmospheres, vicious secrets, and the slow-burn rage of women done being polite, S.R. Marks delivers a tale that cuts deep.
Buy in. Rise up. Tear it down.
S.R. Marks is the pen name author Sara Marks uses for her fantasy books. Sara is a woman with a dark side. She might want love stories, but she knows the universe isn’t always kind. She loves sitting back and watching drama and chaos unfold. Sometimes she’ll even create it.
Sara lives in Massachusetts with her dog Cedric. When not writing she reads voraciously, knits (often while reading), and watching drama channels on YouTube (while knitting).
