A wildly entertaining (San Francisco Chronicle) novel about a young marriage unraveling under the pressure of a subprime mortgage and ruthless Hollywood economics--from the New York Times bestselling author of Watch Me Disappear

Part social satire, part melodrama, part intimate domestic portrait . . . Brown has an uncanny eye for contemporary characters and settings.--Los Angeles Times

Claudia and Jeremy, a young married couple (she's an aspiring filmmaker, he's an indie musician), are on the verge of making it. Her first film was a sensation at Sundance and is about to have its theatrical release; he's got a new band that is a few songs shy of an album. They've recently purchased their first home--a mid-century bungalow with a breathtaking view of Los Angeles--with the magical assistance of an adjustable-rate mortgage.

But a series of seismic events--the tanking of Claudia's film, the return of Jeremy's manipulative, art-star ex-girlfriend, and the staggering adjustment of their monthly mortgage payments--threaten to deal a crushing blow to their dreams of the bohemian life and their professional aspirations and make them question their shared vision of the future.
