It's the spring of 2001, and the Connecticut suburbs are looking fresh and opulent. Everyone is driving great cars, building beautiful houses, living the American Dream.
But Drew Hagel has spent the last decade watching things slip away - his first marriage, his real-estate brokerage, and his beloved daughter, Shannon, now a distant and mysterious high-school senior. He is in danger of losing his place in the affluent suburbs once ruled by his father, when an unexpected friendship with Quint Manning opens Drew's eyes to vast wealth. What Drew doesn't know is that Manning has problems of his own - his Midas touch is abandoning him, his restless wife, Carrie, is growing disillusioned with all the money, and his hard-drinking son, Jamie, Shannon's classmate, is careering out of control . . .
In this astonishing, compelling novel, Stephen Amidon chronicles the American suburban dream with devastating accuracy in a moving story that grips to the last page.
