From New York Times bestselling author Susan Issacs, a "deliciously wicked" (Publishers Weekly) story of three cousins and a fortune. Imagine King Lear as a comedy. At seventy-nine, Gloria Garrison must plan for the future of Glory, Inc., the beauty-makeover business that she has grown from zilch into an eleven-million-dollar-per-year bonanza. Gloria's never been big on family, but she's forced to contemplate her three grandkids as objects of her largesse. There's Daisy, a story editor for a movie studio; her brother, Matt, who does PR for a New York baseball team; and cousin Raquel, laboring away as a Legal Aid lawyer. When Gloria sends plane tickets and a weekend invitation to Santa Fe, the cousins couldn't be more surprised. But the visit holds an unexpected twist for Gloria, too. Always sassy, smart, and wickedly witty, Susan Isaacs is at her formidable best in a novel that is both hilariously funny and a deeply moving tale of family, faith, and discovery.
