In December 2008, my worst nightmare came true . . . How do you pick yourself up after the one thing you most feared happens to you? Alexandra Penney's revealing, spirited, and ultimately redemptive true story shows us how. Throughout her life, Alexandra Penney's worst fear was of becoming a bag lady. Even as she worked several jobs while raising a son as a single mother, wrote a bestselling advice book, and became editor in chief of Self magazine, she was haunted by the image of herself alone, bankrupt, and living on the street. She even went to therapy in an attempt to alleviate the worry that all she had worked for could crumble. And then, one day, that's exactly what happened. Penney had taken a friend's advice and invested nearly everything she had ever earned--all of her savings--with Bernie Madoff. One day she was successful and wealthy; the next she had almost nothing. Suddenly, at an age when many Americans retire, Penney saw her worst nightmares coming true. Based on her popular blog posts on The Daily Beast, this memoir chronicles Penney's struggle to cope with the devastating financial and emotional fallout of being cheated out of her life savings and illuminates her journey back to sanity, solvency, and security. "I will work harder than I ever have before--which was pretty hard indeed--and see what happens. I have the feeling something good will come of it: tough, challenging work and laserlike focus have always paid off for me. . . . Was it better to have it and then lose it? Yes, yes, yes! Even though I lived with horrible bag lady fears of losing it all, now that those financial fears have materialized, I'm in pretty good shape and looking to what's next. Experiences -- good and bad, exciting and boring, tragic and absurd -- make up a life. Not to have lived to the fullest is the saddest, most irresponsible life I can think of." --- from The Bag Lady Papers

Tired of fending off street thugs and worried about the day they can no longer take care of themselves, three elderly widows, Josie, Mabel and Mil, concoct the perfect plan for ensuring their safety, which will also guarantee them free room and board for life. As grocery bag-covered bodies begin turning up in Southern California, police and the media are stumped. Detectives assigned to the case, Paige Turner and Mark Wisneski, wonder what weird new serial killer is on the loose. The victims are mostly drug addicts and small-time crooks, but why the grocery bags? The bodies pile up until the widows invite Turner and Wisneski to tea, where they tell all. What they reveal shocks the world and could lead to the widows' master plan seriously backfiring. Life on the streets and in prison will never be the same.

In a case of mistaken identity, a caring bag lady is whisked from the D.C. Metro into a world of banquets and butlers, mansions and, as fate would have it, missions for the CIA. Our hero, Ellie, knows that there has been a mistake, but she sees no harm in doing a good job and enjoying her fancy new life while it lasts. Told she would be posing as the rich widow Lady Cavendish, Ellie is set up in a mansion in the Washington D.C. area, complete with a new wardrobe, loyal servants and "old" friends. She is to be the perfect hostess of a week-long house party and subsequent yachting weekend. A money launderer is on the loose and the CIA is attempting to track him or her down by presenting the perfect target: a kind old English lady who happens to have a safe full of marked bills. What Ellie lacks in CIA training, she makes up for in enthusiasm, optimism and luck. Her loving nature quickly gains her many friends, including the planted acquaintances of the real Lady Cavendish, her house guests and even a wannabe superhero. Knowing that eventually she will be found out and she'll have to return to the streets, she is determined to make the most of her time and be as helpful as possible, and in some cases she even surprises herself. Will our hero thwart the bad guys before she is found out? What would her new friends think if they knew who she really was? Whatever happened to the real Agent Ellie? Only time will tell as our hero stumbles her way through the posh life with a little help from unexpected places.
