'The wonderful Sue Welfare returns with this slick, wickedly witty and
tightly plotted tale about family secrets, little white lies and the
things you don't want your children to know. Full of her trademark
down-to-earth humour and fabulously drawn characters, this book is an
absolute joy. Do yourself a favour and lock yourself away for the

grape-juice. Smashing!'
