With no sales in a year, Squamskootnocket realtor Ginger Kanadoo will do anything to sell a home!

After 39 years of digging for paydirt in Squamskootnocket, New York's famously feeble real estate market, Ginger Kanadoo has again struck...dirt. Her newest listing? A "starter" outhouse with water views of weed-choked Squamskootnocket Lake. With no closings in a year and the wolf at the door, Ginger will stop at nothing to seal a deal - she'll even team up with her 93-year-old Aunt Maxie Kanadoo, "the World's Oldest Living Realtor!" Meanwhile, Ginger's own badass, newly Wiccan daughter Harvest is eager to pitch in with a naked rite or two. Then there's Tandy Brickenhausen, the cleavage-wielding rival out to poach every listing in a hundred mile radius.

Will the outhouse find a buyer? Will Harvest's potions conjure a sale, or wake the dead? Will Aunt Maxie retain her coveted titel? Will somebody let the air out of Tandy's bra?

Cracks in the Foundation is a hilarious, dead-on send-up of the wild wild world of real estate, small towns, white zindfanel, black magic, outhouses and the American Dream.



Professional Reviews

Alex Beam, The Boston Globe
It's hard to think of real estate without crying...Well try laughing instead. In "Cracks in the Foundatio," Erica Ferencik convinces us that comic reality is more hysterical than we ever imagined."

Tony Kahn, National Public Radio
"Erica Ferencik is a triple-threat humorist and fiction writer with the heart of an angel, the wit of a first rate satirist, and the zaniness of John Cleese."

Barbara Corcoran, Founder of the Corcoran Group
"Ginger Kanadoo is outrageous and ridiculous! I loved her from page one. What a delightful book!"
