Women's Fiction Contemporary
Set in the fictional subdivision of "Galapagos Estates,"
Rattled is a very funny look at what happens when soccer
moms, animal rights activists, dishonest real estate
developers and, of course, rattlesnakes, get together and
fight for ascendancy in the rapidly developing New Jersey
suburbs. All Heather wants there is a nice house. Well, a
nice house and a nice piece of land. And of course a
basement gym, a master bath with radiant heat, Jacuzzi and
his-and-her toilets. She could make do without a media room
if she had to. After all, the pioneers hadn't had plasma TV,
and they'd survived. Heather is not your average suburban
housewife--or maybe she is. But when her fortuitous meeting
with an endangered species of rattlesnake sets this first
novel in motion, you may find yourself feeling sorry for the
snake. Sharp, biting, and absolutely entertaining, Rattled
is brilliant social satire.
