The True and Outstanding Adventures of the Hunt Sisters A Novel

This tragicomic and ultimately heartwarming debut novel is told entirely through the letters, emails, faxes, and telegrams of Olivia Hunt, a cynical, 34-year-old hotshot Hollywood producer whose life has just hit a low point: she’s been unceremoniously fired and dumped. Amidst planning her next movie, a version of Don Quixote, and trying to manage her tumultuous relationship with her ex-boyfriend, Michael, Olivia receives devastating news: her beloved younger sister, Maddie, has leukemia. While Olivia has always felt superior to Maddie, who lives a quiet, optimistic life back in their Midwestern hometown, her sister’s illness forces Olivia to rush home and reassess her priorities and her complicated relationship with her family. The novel chronicles Olivia’s chaotic year of dizzying highs and devastating lows as she struggles to balance her career ambitions in Los Angeles and Spain with her commitment to her sister and her search for true love, all while rediscovering the enduring and powerful bond of sisterly love and the meaning of family.
