It is 1999 in San Francisco. The dot.com boom is in full swing,
and it seems as though every twenty-something has become an instant
millionaire-except our narrator, who has just arrived from the
Midwest without a job. Confronted with the chilling prospect of
missing out on the greatest cash grab of the twentieth century, he
enlists with a temp agency. That's when things start getting
strange.
Mistaken by the agency for an urbane homosexual instead of the
ex-frat boy he really is, he is assigned to a fully-staffed mansion
in the Pacific Heights neighborhood. His new boss? Definitely not
the old matron he was expecting.
Bailey Phelan is the gorgeous, thirty-year-old wife of an aging
billionaire, and her penchant for Prada, recreational drugs, and
foreign boyfriends quickly has the narrator running in circles
trying to keep her exorbitant spending and romantic misadventures
under wraps. But despite all the glitz, what she might need most is
a friend.
As the narrator get sucked deeper into the mansion
milieu-oversexed nannies, a lovelorn gay chef, the obsessive head
housekeeper, the bilious billionaire himself-he's faced with the
unavoidable question: will the six-figure salary and over-the-top
lifestyle of the rich and infamous corrupt him -- or will he cut
and run with his soul intact?
