Requests:  0 Summary:  "A wildly entertaining debut about a Brooklyn Heights wife and mother who has embezzled a small fortune from her children's private school and makes a run for it, leaving behind her trust fund poet husband, his maybe-secret lover, her two daughters, and a school board who will do anything to find her. Marion Palm prefers not to think of herself as a thief but rather "a woman who embezzles." Over the years she has managed to steal $180,000 from her daughters' private school, money that has paid for European vacations, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and perpetually unused state-of-the-art exercise equipment. But, now, when the school faces an audit, Marion pulls piles of rubber-banded cash from their basement hiding places and flees, leaving her family to grapple with the baffled detectives, the irate school board, and the mother-shaped hole in their house. Told from the points of view of Nathan, Marion's husband, heir to a long-diminished family fortune; Ginny, Marion's teenage daughter who falls helplessly in love at the slightest provocation; Jane, Marion's youngest who is obsessed with a missing person of her own; and Marion herself, on the lam--and hiding in plain sight"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Culliton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hanapepe Public Library Adult Fiction Culliton, Emily Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Culliton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Culliton Checked In Add Copy to MyList
