In the bestselling tradition of The Devil Wears Prada, real-life publicist Rachel Pine's debut novel, The Twins of Tribeca, perfectly captures the tantrums, whims, follies, neuroses, and unimaginable egos that seem almost too outrageous to be true. But that's show biz. Karen Jacobs has landed the job of a lifetime at New York's hottest boutique film studio, High Art Pictures, which is headed by a set of famously competitive and ambitious brothers, Phil and Tony Waxman, the highbrow, publicity-hungry sharks who love to promote, promote, promote. Karen works in the company's most intense division-the hyper-heated publicity department, so she is perfectly situated to see how it all happens: the brothers''moving meetings' that rotate staff in and out of limos on the way to the airport; the catering to a celebrity's every (psychotic) whim;working on the Academy for those all-important nominations. On her first big night working as a celebrity greeter at a premiere, her neurotic, hard-driving boss tells her: 'Don't move your hands when you greet people. They might think you're trying to touch them.'
