Nothing Serious
A disappointed tech executive is going into an obsessive spiral when her nice pal—and longtime crush—is implicated in a female’s death.
Edie Walker’s existence is not going as planned.
At thirty-five she feels stuck: in her career, in her love life, and in her tiny San Francisco studio condominium. It doesn’t assist that her satisfactory buddy, Peter Masterson, is largely the über successful male model of her—and she or he’s hopelessly, unrequitedly in love with him. But while Peter breaks up with his female friend of seven years, Edie thinks her existence may sooner or later be turning around. He’ll discover how toxic relationship-app way of life is and recognise Edie has been proper for him all alongside.
Except Peter almost right away lands a date with Anaya Thomas, a terrifi, whip-clever professor and writer of feminist literature whom even Edie—reared within the tradition of tech bros—is smitten with the aid of. Unlike the girls Peter has dated before, Anaya is like an alternative-truth version of Edie—one with shampoo-industrial hair and a significant career, who without a doubt doesn’t spend her weekends scrolling social media alone in her apartment. It’s most effective a depend of time before Peter falls head over heels for this girl; Edie herself is infatuated after one assembly. Then Anaya is located lifeless in her apartment—proper after a date with Peter.
