Weird cult members, ambitious university faculty and wacky nursing home residents — throw them all together and you get hilarity, sex and mayhem. And for the Hensley family, it could just be a deadly combination.
Who is really saved at Nob Hill Manor? Is it Eddy, the 80-year-old resident who wears a medallion around his neck to celebrate his sexual prowess? Is it Nancy, the beautiful young nursing assistant who has pledged her allegiance to a charismatic cult leader? Or is it Nick, the tough-talking, womanizing drifter who deals in his own way with the chaos?
“Engaging, intelligent and funny — Mars hits the trifecta for good, entertaining fiction with Saved at Nob Hill Manor.” —Maureen Radlick, Editor in Chief, Women’s Lifestyle Magazine
“Family dysfunctions make Saved at Nob Hill Manor a fast-paced and twist-packed novel. Unpredictable and engaging, the multi-faceted characters interact in a dryly witty manner. Whether poignant, bawdy, hilarious or eye-opening, Saved at Nob Hill is always affecting.”
—Juliette Cowall, Editor, Grand Media, Inc.
Review of the original screenplay on which the novel is based: “A page turner. Great writing. Characters that jump off the page and bristle with vitality.”
