My Debut Novel

The story takes place in Northern California in the spring of 2000, when the dot-com boom was at its peak. Elizabeth Reilly-Hayden is a successful executive in her late fifties and a divorced mother of two. Emotionally armored and living alone, she wants only to maintain the status quo: her long-term significant other, her job, and her trusted friendsfive feisty women whose high school friendship has carried them through multiple marriages, dramatic divorces, and maddening menopause. Yet in a matter of days, the three anchors that have kept her moored are ripped away.

The group of lifelong pals gathers at Lake Tahoe to attend to the funeral arrangements of their beloved friend, and tries to unravel the mystery of her death. Through their shared tragedy, Liz learns how disappointment and grief can bloom into healing and hope.

"The women in Judith Marshall's book are memorable... reminding us that friendship, though fragile at times, can withstand calamities, especially the ones we create for ourselves."Teresa LeYung Ryan, author of Love Made of Heart

"A rich, funny, deeply-felt story of sisterhood, loyalty, and the human heart."Frank Baldwin, author of the novels Balling the Jack and Jake & Mimi

Description: "Husbands May Come and Go but Friends are Forever," is a celebration of fresh hopes, second chances and the anything-but-simple art of relationships. The book has been optioned for the big screen.
