I couldn’t put it down.” — Chris Pavone, author of the New York Times bestseller The Expats “An epic novel of friendship, betrayal and undying love ... outstanding” — Kirkus Reviews “A smart, sensuous, and moving debut. ... Delicious. ... The characters exude a Jazz Age glamour.” — O magazine “A cultural lament wrapped in a lesson about extramarital lust--a riveting read.” — Daily Beast “Dubow proves himself to be an elegant writer with a shrewd sense of how to shape his material for the broadest appeal.
