What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Sexy, and filled with enough dTcor details to keep any HGTV addict happy.” -People (three stars) “Entertaining. You don’t so much read a novel like this as watch it unfold, scene by scene.” -Los Angeles Times “A mix of True Confessions, Architectural Digest, and Psychology Today.” -USA Today “Murphy captures the absurd humor that often springs from extreme wealth. But where the novel’s real charms lie is in [its] insightful observations of the thorny relationship between humans and their domiciles.” -Kirkus Reviews
