Spontaneous
When Auntie Ned spontaneously combusts, she leaves behind a pair of smoking orthopedic shoes and house that she will to her best friend's daughters. Amy and Gwendolyn are sisters — closer than close — who move into the bungalow and inherit Ned's legacies: a closet full of housedresses, a freezer full of meat, and the passionate flames of unrequited desire.
Amy's appetites — for meat, for sex, for getting her way — are ferocious, while Gwendolyn longs for a more normal existence but can't refuse her big sister anything at all. Wagman's plot is as combustible as Auntie Ned, adding a troubled carpenter whose steamy entanglement with the sisters will either save them all or set spark to a situation that's bound to explode.
