Book description
Holly Macintosh is sitting round her kitchen table with her oldest
friends - friends she hasn't seen since school - now reunited by an
unexpected tragedy and catching up on the past 20 years.

is looking less and less likely, and Olivia, always the wallflower of
the group, is newly single and mourning her lost love.
And what about Holly Mac? Can she and her husband Marcus get their
marriage back on track for the sake of the children? Or has someone
just come back into her life who will change everything forever?
