From the back cover
For ten years, June has been the wife who cleans up after Holden Langford's affairs, smoothing over each scandal and coaxing his mistresses back into his orbit. When he flicks an unlimited black card across the marble and promises to come home once he has conquered his latest obsession, she accepts it without a scene. To Manhattan's social registers, she is the docile lapdog of a cheating heir, and his inner circle bets openly on how much pride she will swallow.
What none of them know is that June is dying. Her oncologist has told her she will not live to see next month, and the money Holden hands her so carelessly will buy only a quiet plot on the bluffs above the Atlantic. So she offers his mistress the rings he once designed for their own tenth anniversary, and lets him believe her obedience is greed.
Holden despises her saintly routine and demands to know what she was doing out. June hides the pharmacy bag and lies about cramps, while he takes back a pendant he once gave her to pass on to another woman.
Inside the book Opening excerpt
To coax her back into Holden’s orbit, I did what I had spent ten years perfecting. I stood in the biting wind outside a bakery on Prince Street for three hours to secure the brioche loaf she had casually mentioned on her Instagram story. I called in old favors to get front-row seats at Madison Square Garden for the sold-out tour she couldn't stop talking about. I arranged a private charter off the tip of Manhattan, timing the return down to the minute so a custom fireworks show would erupt over the harbor just as they toasted with vintage Krug.
