Destined to be the most talked about debut novel of 2007 First it was the Cosmopolitans. Then Manolos and the Birkin bag. Now the Manhattan working mums bring you the new must -have accessory; the Manny Jamie Whitfield is a rarity among the sleek and chic of 'The Grid' -- the exclusive block of the Upper East Side where it's all about keeping up with the Vanderbilts. She's a working mother, from the wrong side of the tracks and is never quite going to fit in, much to the dismay of her husband Phillip. But while he's worrying that they're the poor white trash of The Grid, struggling along on a mere one mill a year, Jamie is more concerned about her unhappy nine-year-old boy Dylan. On the verge of breaking the story that could make her reporting career, and facing mutiny from her son, she hires a Manny -- a male nanny and the new 'must-have' accessory on The Grid. And Peter proves to be a life-saver in more ways than she could ever have imagined!

Praise for the HB: 'The Manny is a sharp and hugely enjoyable read. Fans of New Yorker must-bys The Devil Wears Prada and The Nanny Diaries should be rushing this one to the tills faster than SJP at a Manolo sample sale. ***** Heat 'A lively debut' Tatler 'A cleverly sub-plotted metropolitan fairy tale' Good Housekeeping 'Move over yummy mummies. The yummy manny is in town.' Spectator 'Money, Manners, Mannys: Holly Peterson's debut is a fabulously sharp skewering of the silly-rich in New York. I couldn't put it down. We should ALL get a Manny.' Plum Sykes
