"Anna Katz acaba de cumplir 64 años, la edad a la que murieron su padre, su abuela y su tía y, por si acaso, lo ha celebrado en grande y ha hecho una lista con todo aquello que siempre quiso pero nunca pudo hacer. Sin embargo, sus planes pronto tropizan con contratiempos. Su hija Sofía, una periodista de 32 años tan exitosa en el trabajo como desventurada en el amor, la sorprende con un embarazo inesperado y su excéntrica y entrañable prima Bea decide encaminarse hacia la muerte. Anna y Leonardo, su "eterno novio," se enfrentan además a otra impactante noticia que cambiará el rumbo de sus vidas."--Provided by publisher"Anna Katz has just turned 64, the age at which her father, her grandmother and her aunt died.
