Montecito: Where having it all sometimes means having the most to hide.

For a smart guy, Hollis Crawford has certainly fouled things up. He planted his family in California’s wealthiest town, backed his wife’s transition from high-powered public relations partner to non-profit volunteer, and then got fired—not once, not twice, but three times. Now, with his savings drained and his prospects dwindling, Hollis is desperate for one last chance to keep his family afloat.
