While making a delivery to Flora Melkiot at Madam Norina's Temple of Health exercise salon in the exclusive Olympus House condominium highrise, Rebecca is among many witnesses to a brutal murder. Laura Tyler, a widow, has just moved into the Olympus House with dreams of becoming a socialite. But that dream is short lived when on her first day at the exercise salon, someone laces her mineral water with drain crystals. Flora Melkiot, a nosy old gossip and highrise tenant, is convinced the police are idiots and is determined to investigate Laura's death. And she expects Rebecca to help her.

A mad mix of politics, extra-marital affairs, blackmail, strong personalities, gambling and assorted secrets make this mystery almost impossible to solve, but solve it Rebecca does, and in the process learns something about her own problems since the shooting that crippled her.

Fitness trainer Paisley Summerhill finds herself in hot water. If her class really caused the guest's death, she'll never get another job at a posh resort. Luckily, she's good at puzzles... and when she learns the deceased had a string of lovers, using the resort to meet them behind his wife's back, she taps into resort gossip and finds several worthy suspects. Paisley secretly investigates, with the help of her younger friend Ellie Cruz, who's almost like a sister (since Ellie's brother is Paisley's ex-fiancé).

He takes over the case and wants Paisley and his sister, Ellie, nowhere near the evidence. - An Ellie twist: looking out for the recent college dropout is tricky for Paisley, although she's determined to get her healthy. However, Ellie's rooting for Paisley and Dolan's to get back together, while flirting with the resort's sexy Chef Armand, a potential suspect. - A Boss twist: Paisley's new boss is known as Loggerhead Lange and she's not happy with anyone that upsets her guests. - A Killer twist: an accident almost ends all of Paisley's problems permanently.

Download or read book Exercised written by Daniel Lieberman and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If exercise is healthy (so good for you!), why do many people dislike or avoid it? These engaging stories and explanations will revolutionize the way you think about exercising—not to mention sitting, sleeping, sprinting, weight lifting, playing, fighting, walking, jogging, and even dancing. “Strikes a perfect balance of scholarship, wit, and enthusiasm.” —Bill Bryson, New York Times best-selling author of The Body • If we are born to walk and run, why do most of us take it easy whenever possible? • Does running ruin your knees? • Should we do weights, cardio, or high-intensity training? • Is sitting really the new smoking? • Can you lose weight by walking? • And how do we make sense of the conflicting, anxiety-inducing information about rest, physical activity, and exercise with which we are bombarded? In this myth-busting book, Daniel Lieberman, professor of human evolutionary biology at Harvard University and a pioneering researcher on the evolution of human physical activity, tells the story of how we never evolved to exercise—to do voluntary physical activity for the sake of health. Using his own research and experiences throughout the world, Lieberman recounts without jargon how and why humans evolved to walk, run, dig, and do other necessary and rewarding physical activities while avoiding needless exertion. Exercised is entertaining and enlightening but also constructive. As our increasingly sedentary lifestyles have contributed to skyrocketing rates of obesity and diseases such as diabetes, Lieberman audaciously argues that to become more active we need to do more than medicalize and commodify exercise. Drawing on insights from evolutionary biology and anthropology, Lieberman suggests how we can make exercise more enjoyable, rather than shaming and blaming people for avoiding it. He also tackles the question of whether you can exercise too much, even as he explains why exercise can reduce our vulnerability to the diseases mostly likely to make us sick and kill us.
