Agnes has mastered the art of being a celebrity spouse with the right friends, designer clothes, and her own writing career. She knows how to navigate tennis tournaments and lavish parties in a world of frenemies and hot nannies, personal psychics and skinny jello shots. But Trevor wants her to lose everything in their split. Agnes refuses to surrender. She fights back against a system designed to crush discarded wives. The battle becomes a war of wills as Agnes discovers that losing her marriage might mean finding herself again.
