Scruples that Beverly had followed since childhood seemed to be working well…until she hit midlife and her husband filed for divorce, her teenagers mutinied against her, she was promoted to a high-stress position, and she found a murder victim in the ladies’ restroom of Gerry’s Socks & Shoes. Through an emotional and sometimes comical series of events, Beverly attempts to unravel some mysteries of life and help catch the bad guys while struggling with her own personal quirks, fears, and expectations. In her journey she finds that sometimes people who do not follow the rules are heroes, and villains are not always foiled. Sometimes a man who becomes your best friend does not match your expectations for Prince Charming. Most surprisingly, a casual friend that you least expect to go that extra mile will become a dear friend, even though she dances to a completely different drummer and follows mores that Beverly will never understand.

If you’re arriving to the midlife crisis party—the one that’s serving low self-esteem, desperation, unreliable behavior, forgetfulness, carelessness, and the loneliness of loss—the stories and anecdotes in this memoir will assure you that you are not alone. For Sara Arnell, it took a rogue lobster, a dying rock star, an eighteen-pound tumor, a meditation guru, a famous medium, and a former monk to put her on a path toward light, hope, and healing. If reading this book helps even one person, according to Sara, then telling this story is all worth it. “Sara Arnell is the only writer I know who can make self-deprecation and wisdom look like the same thing. There Will Be Lobster is a darkly funny memoir with a big heart, and it’s the exact comeback story we all need right now.” —David Hollander, author of Anthropica and L.I.E. “This book is a deeply personal story that’s not afraid to show you the crazy moments that we all have, but often don’t admit to. Read this memoir if you want to learn how honesty, vulnerability, and sheer perseverance can help you step into your light and illuminate a new path—one that is happy, healthy, and full of hope.” —André Leon Talley, author of New York Times bestseller The Chiffon Trenches and former Vogue editor-at-large
