'The perfect summer read' My Weekly
La Plante writes characters that you can believe in and want to root for and these women are no different. Each one is flawed and vulnerable, as they struggle to come to terms with their new lives without their men. At the heart of the story are themes of survival and friendship and how loss can bring very different people together. A real page-turner stuffed with gasp-out-loud surprises
