  <default_description>W&lt;br&gt;hen nice-girl Kate McGraw finds herself working at &lt;i&gt;Tasty,&lt;/i&gt; a magazine with its finger on the pulse of modern style, she&amp;#8217;s finally able to put her flair for fashion to good use. But can she keep up with the &lt;i&gt;Tasty&lt;/i&gt; staffers? Ethereally beautiful and extremely emaciated, they stay out all night, never look the worse for wear, and are always dressed to kill.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Like everyone else around the office, Kate finds herself begrudgingly reading dispatches from a snarky industry blog that dubs her colleagues &amp;#8220;bloodthirsty vamps.&amp;#8221; She knows they don&amp;#8217;t mean it literally, but . . . she&amp;#8217;s heard whispers of &amp;#8220;fashion murders&amp;#8221; and she &lt;i&gt;has&lt;/i&gt; noticed strange things around the office: Like, why doesn&amp;#8217;t her boss get laminates to fix her sharp teeth? Why are the blinds always drawn, and why is there a no-garlic policy in the cafeteria? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As well-dressed bodies begin to pile up near all the hot places, Kate has to wonder if there&amp;#8217;s a serial killer loose with a grudge against the stylish. Or if the truth is even more sinister: Are Kate&amp;#8217;s coworkers actually undead? And, if so, can she design an exit strategy before she finds herself at &lt;i&gt;Tasty&lt;/i&gt; forever?</default_description>

She knows her stuff and brings the reader into the setting and the story very effectively, even if you know nothing about fashion or the magazine industry.
