High Maintenance

Meer over het boek

"High Maintenance is set in the manic world of Manhattan real estate, it tells the story of Liv Kellerman, freshly independent, having just left her husband and - more sadly - their fabulous duplex apartment with its Empire State Building views. On her own for the first time in her life, Liv relocates to a crumbling Greenwich Village hovel and contemplates her next move.". "After an ill-starred stint as a reader for a blind judge, Liv stumbles into her true calling: selling real estate. With her native eye for prime properties and an effective blend of empathy and contempt for her clients, Liv finds success and soon is swimming with the sharks - hardcore brokers who'll do absolutely anything to close a deal. Along the way she picks up a maniacally ardent architect who likes to bite her, a lovesick androgynous mentor, strange and exasperating clients, and a gun, and brings them along on her search for the one thing she's really after - a home."--BOOK JACKET.
