An irresistible tale by the veteran "LA Law" actor, AFTER ANNIE is an astonishing debut. Herbie Aaron is one half of a celebrity marriage. He and Annie have been together a lifetime. They've been famous, nobodies, and mingled with the rich and crazy. Through it all, they've been passionate lovers and fast friends. But when Annie dies of cancer, Herbie doesn't know what to do without her, his conscience and his muse.

If you think this is going to be a tragic tale about death and grief, think again. Herbie is too cantankerous, sly, and charming to keel over. Enter Olive, a beautiful bartender who just might be a great actress; Candy, Herbie and Annie's neurotic daughter; and a woman named Billy, the tough-talking golf pro who teaches Herbie more about his psyche than about his lousy swing.

AFTER ANNIE is a hilarious and beautifully rendered novel about a man off the rails, battling through the middle-aged wilderness days he hoped never to face alone.
