Summary

'Beautifully written, dark, twisted and often funny' Charlotte Levin
'Dark and twisted, comic and toxic. I loved it!' Jenny Colgan
'Shocking and compelling. I raced through it. Fabulous' Daily Mail

Ruth and Muriel are best friends. And often, worst enemies.

Inseparable since they were little, Ruth and Muriel have shared everything.

Now, fate has left them living together in a North London home, with Ruth caring for Muriel in her deteriorating health, playing Scrabble, arguing and making up, passing the days in monotony.

Until one afternoon, when Muriel makes an unexpected and sinister announcement: ‘In exactly seventy-two hours, I am going to die’.

The end might be in sight for Muriel, but that’s just the beginning of this story about two old friends who have seventy-six years of history – and more than one shocking secret – between them . . .

A darkly comic novel about two old friends, a lifelong (toxic) friendship, and the very fine line between love and hate. Perfect for fans of Joanna Cannon, Charlotte Levin and Jennie Godfrey.

Nothing

I stopped listening as I couldn’t cope with the narrator’s voice. Far too fast and agitated. Sorry
