Susannah Wilds

Erecting Mammon Susannah Wilds

When a New York whistleblower is bribed and then threatened, she decides to take the money and run south. Hoping to start a new life as Meredith Philips, heiress to a modest fortune, she settles in a once-famous winter resort for the very wealthy where Whiskey Road meets Easy Street. But as one ethical compromise leads to another, she begins to wonder if the cost of doing business with the bad guys isn't just too high. In this topsy-turvy town where the best addresses are on unpaved roads and sixty-room mansions are referred to as cottages, Meredith redefines her values with the help of an impeccably affluent grand dame, Miss Caroline, a pyromaniac housekeeper, Jewel, and a gardener named Mudd.
