1987
When Jamie Ricklehouse was growing up, an upper-crust heiress in the white-gloved 'fifties, the Two Great Unmentionables were sex and money. No one had sex. Everyone had- the other. It was just what you were, like being Episcopalian and summering on the Sound. It all forwed from The Firm - a distant downtown empire ruled by Jamie's omnipotent Daddy - J.S.
One fateful day, J.S. bestowed his thoroughbred princess in marriage, and entrusted her young husband with her pampered, leisured life. Oh dear. Somehow Jamie's stars got crossed - she's divorced, disinherited, and living at Bare Minimum. She's frightened, bewildered, but still her father's daughter - and fighting like hell to beat life's bottom line.
