PUBLISHER Urban Books (05/01/2008)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Mass Market Paperbound)

Description
A few fabulous trips. Eight crazy people. Tons of mad drama.

"What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." For the eight members of the Destination: Anticipation Travel Club (DAT Club) -- this popular motto doesn't exactly ring true. The group is sorely reminded that dirt is dirt is dirt, no matter where it happens and eventually folks are going to find out about it, no matter how hard they try to cover up their individual misdeeds.

Identical twins Madetra Howard, a frustrated, inner-city hospital doctor and Elantra Evans, a stripper/web-porn operator, start a travel club and along for the ride are: Madetra's uncaring husband who secretly loves his sister-in-law and is hell-bent on distancing himself from his humble beginnings, a self-absorbed local TV anchorman who develops a thing for every woman he meets, a mysterious psychiatrist who is nuttier than his patients, a female TV news producer whose affair with a fellow travel club member leaves her pregnant and reeling, a reporter whose Sex & The Single Sistah column reveals a little too much about the city's elite and a petty drug dealer/minor league baseball player who will do anything or anyone to get out of the cut and into the major leagues.

For DAT Club, all hell breaks loose following a trip to Las Vegas. With secrets as deep and twisted as the road is long -- everyone is in peril when a blackmailer and killer among them makes their presence known. Each of them must learn for themselves there are consequences to be paid for their actions -- and when the men start dying off -- the women start questioning their allegiances, their safety and their sanity.

To put it simply, these folks are TRIPPIN'. So sit back, fasten your seatbelt and enjoy this explosive, drama-filled literary ride.
