Bev is the Smart One, who finally leaves her artistic
ambitions in chalk dust (and her humor-impaired husband in
the arms—and legs—of his nubile protégée) to become a
schoolteacher. Clare is the Pretty One, who married well
and seems to be living a designer version of the suburban
dream. Joey is the Wild One, struggling to stay clean and
sober now that she's used up her fifteen minutes of fame as
a one-hit-wonder rock star.
They love each other but mix like oil, water, and hundred-
proof gin . . . a combination that threatens to combust
over family tensions, suspected infidelities, a devastating
accident, a stunning confession, and the sudden
reappearance of their handsome, now all-grown-up former
neighbor, Kenny Waxman, who's back in town making his mark
as a TV comedy writer.
It seems they'll never understand where their differences
begin and their own destructive tendencies end. Then it
happens: the sisters discover a decades-old body stuffed
inside an industrial drum and begin a bold, heartbreaking,
and sometimes hilarious journey that will either bring them
together . . . or tear them apart for good.
