About the book

An unforgettable novel of love and loss, revenge and forgiveness... Lucy Shoreman discovers in one fell swoop that not only has her husband Artie been cheating on her, but that his heart is failing and he's dying. So in a drunken moment she takes his little black book, and dials up all his former lovers, asking them to schedule their turn caring for him on his death bed. After all, they were there for the good times, so why should she deal with the bad times on her own? The last thing she expects is that any will actually show up. But one by one, they do. The one who hates him. The one who owes her life to him. The one he turned into a lesbian, and the one he taught to dance. And among them is one person with the strangest story of all...
