“Abby Drake is a masterful storyteller.”
—Sue Margolis, author of Gucci, Gucci, Coo

The secrets sisters keep can be startling—and in the hands of Abby Drake, author of Perfect Little Ladies and Good Little Wives, they can be outrageous, eye-opening, wickedly smart and wildly funny. With The Secrets Sisters Keep, Drake once again takes women’s fiction far beyond common chick lit—delighting readers with a deeply satisfying story of four sisters gathering at a rich uncle’s home  to celebrate his birthday. But they’ll have to find the old man first, since he’s inconveniently gone missing. If you like Allison Pearson, Jennifer Weiner, and Jennifer Crusie, you will love this fresh and surprising story of sibling rivalry, fate, disputed fortunes,and The Secrets Sisters Keep.

      At the start of Drake's funny and wise family soaper, successful Broadway producer Edward Dalton vanishes shortly before the arrival of his unhappy nieces, four sisters, at his big 75th birthday bash in Kamp Kasteel, N.Y. Afraid that gay Uncle Edward could have run off to Connecticut to marry his partner, Henry, and leave them out of his will, the nieces all want to be at his party: historian Ellie Dalton, "the most stable one of the bunch"; "Park Avenue socialite" Amanda Dalton Delaney, who's married to an unfaithful architect; Naomi "Babe" Dalton, a movie star "wed to yesterday's top-box-office, action-flick man"; and black sheep Carleen, who 20 years earlier unintentionally burned their home down with their parents inside. Drake (Perfect Little Ladies) depicts the search for Uncle Edward and the bumpy quest for family harmony with wit and style as the sisters try to make peace with the past.
