Linda Taylor is livestreaming her glamourous life as a supplement saleswoman when she trips over in front of her followers ­‑ and can't get up. When Linda's children, Jack and Alice, find out she's broken her hip and can't care for their ailing father or make her monthly sales quota, it's clear that Linda needs their help. There's just one problem: Jack hasn't spoken to Linda since he came out as a trans man over a decade ago.
 
As the family gets together in Noosa and thunder clouds gather overhead, will blood ties be enough to disentangle years of hurt, prejudice and pyramid-scheme brainwashing? Or should Jack get ready to cancel his mother once and for all?
 
The Pyramid of Needs is a dark, wry and deeply illuminating examination of family dynamics in a world full of division and misinformation.

The Pyramid of Needs will be published by Affirm Press in March 2024.
