From the back cover: "Grace Brookman has it all. She leads the quintessential New York life with her ideal husband, Laz. That is, until her ideal husband goes out and doesn't come back. Sure, he's always been prone to leaving for days at a time, but this time is different. Weeks pass. Holidays come and go. And still no trace of the man she thought she knew. Suddenly Grace is responsible for everything, including coverig up for her AWOL spouse. Soon she learns that a marriage can be reduced to a few timely excuses, some spilled crumbs here, and some dirty laundry there-fooling everyone around her...just like she was fooled. The deception becomes almost a hobby for her. But then Laz's sordid past shows up on her doorstep, along with a few other surprises. Her life is becoming a New York mess. And as a single wife, she'll have to take matters into her own hands."
