Book excerpt: The novel takes place in the heart of Silicon Valley, where materialism thrives and acquisition is the heartbeat of the community. It opens with Katie LaFont preparing for her first appointment with a world renowned psychiatrist from Stanford University. After reluctantly agreeing to seek help she takes a step back and wonders how her life became an intractable mess. She questions what is missing as she takes one more inventory of her existence: devoted husband; beautiful kids; a successful business of her own; fine art; luxury cars; jewelry; and designer clothing. After checking off the final item on her list, her dream home, she finds herself at the precipice of losing it all. Shortly after moving in, a growing numbness leads her to revaluate her own obsession with accumulation, wondering if this is all life has to offer. Katie begins to limp through the life she spent so much effort to create only to discover that it might be a fa�ade.
