    Since noon, women had arrived in waves, parking their sedans and SUVs
    at intervals along the nondescript cul-de-sac. First were the
    stay-at-home moms, then the working-class wives, then the single girls.
    At the front door, they were met by a fortyish blonde with
    machine-tanned skin, dyed hair and suspiciously perky breasts pressing
    against a tight blue sweater. We’ll call her Debbie. She ushered the
    women inside.
