Kissing in Manhattan
- List Price: $21.95
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Dial Press
- Publish date: 12/01/2006
The Preemption -- a mysterious apartment building manned by a prophetic doorman named Sender -- sets the stage for a comic romance as dark, mythic, and dazzling as the city it occupies. Inside, the paths of an improbable cast of tenants -- a seductive perfume heiress; a crabby, misunderstood actor; a preternaturally sharp-sighted priest -- tangle and cross, and a dramatic confrontation builds around the lives of three characters:
James Branch, a shy young accountant with an unusual attachment to the Preemption's antique elevator, and a strange destiny . . .
Patrick Rigg, a Wall Street lothario who soothes his pain by seducing beautiful women, carrying a gun, and attending the nightly sermons of a foreboding priest . . .
Rally McWilliams, a fetching, hopeful young writer who roams the city at night, searching for the soulmate she believes in but can't find . . . .
Charged with joy and a deadly sense of humor, "Kissing in Manhattan" invents a charmed metropolis where fantasy collides with fate, and the battles between men and women, good and evil, love and sex happen on every street corner.
