"The storytelling has vitality and a spirit of rebellion, giving us hope for the future of all those bad girls with dirty faces and bad boys on bikes."--"The New York Times"There is about Maggie Estep's work a directness, a clear determination--a drive to cut through, to break through, to claw through--that is impressive."--A.M. Homes, author of "The Mistress's Daughter"Maggie Estep is the bastard daughter of Raymond Chandler and Anais Nin. Her prose is hard-boiled and sexy; she turns a good phrase and shows some leg."--Jonathan Ames, author of "Wake Up, Sir!"Alice Hunter is a thirty-six-year-old professional gambler living in Queens, New York.

When Clayton's overzealousness leads Alice to ask one of her racetrack cronies to intimidate Clayton into leaving her, a few things go wrong and Alice turns to her half-sister Eloise, a toy maker, whose own lover has just been killed in a freak accident.There is fierce love between Alice, Eloise, and Kimberly (their unconventional mother), but it takes Alice's accidental discovery of an awful secret Kimberly has been keeping to truly bring three eccentric women, seventeen dogs, and assorted lovers together.Maggie Estep has published six books, including "Hex," a "New York Times" Notable Book of 2003. Her work has appeared in many magazines and anthologies including: "Brooklyn Noir," "Queens Noir," "Aloud: Voices from the Nuyorican Poets Cafe," "The Best American Erotica," and "The Outlaw Bible of American Poetry."
