‘Gossipy, gripping and brilliantly written’ Lauren Bravo
Florence Grimes is a 31-year-old party girl who always takes the easy way out. After a dismal end to her girlband career, she’s living in West London, single, broke and unfulfilled with only her son Dylan to keep her afloat.
But then Alfie Risby, the ten-year-old heir to a frozen food empire and Dylan’s school rival, mysteriously vanishes on a class trip, and Dylan becomes a prime suspect.
Florence needs to find Alfie and clear her son’s name or risk losing him forever. The only problem? She doesn’t have any detective skills, all the other school mums hate her, and she’s just found Alfie’s backpack hidden under her son’s bed…
”'I raced through this. Gossipy, gripping and brilliantly written, with a protagonist who toes a daring line between relatable and reprehensible. I predict hype!” - Lauren Bravo, author of Possibly Nothing
”'Spiky, witty and a breath of fresh air in the canon of books about motherhood. I can see it on screen already” - Pandora Sykes
'A potent mix of mystery, laugh out loud humor, and one of the most indelibly matchless protagonists ever: an unreliable party girl who will go to any lengths to protect her son. Put this at the top of your to be read list!” Liv Constantine, author of The Last Mrs Parrish -
”'Come for the *world-class* title! Stay for a fabulously imperfect heroine, beautifully irreverent humour, and a plot that sinks its teeth in. All the other mothers might hate Florence, but I loved her!” - Fran Littlewood, author of Amazing Grace Adams
'An absolute riot with a razor sharp sense of humor and unyielding suspense' Rachel Koller Croft, author of Stone Cold Fox -
