'An engaging, emotionally-charged and intriguing story' Michelle Gorman

On a normal day, in a normal house, on a normal street, wife and mother Fran has had enough.

She packs a case, leaves a note for her bullying husband Pete, and one for her beloved twenty-year-old son Harry, and heads to the airport - and freedom.

In another house, on another street, Helena is desperately baiting her husband Jack into a fight. These days it feels like the only way to get Jack to take notice of her. Passionate, volatile, increasingly fragile, Helena is fast running out of hope.

What Helena and Fran don’t know, is that soon their lives are going to collide in ways neither expect nor understand. And if Fran and Helena are going to change their own futures, then first they will have to change each other’s.

Amanda Brookfield is back with a triumphant, crackling story about love, marriage, lies and fate, and how our destinies can be changed by the smallest decisions. Perfect for fans of Sheila O'Flanagan, Jane Fallon and Jane Green.

I bought this because the story sounded good and Marvelous Phillida Nash was one of the two readers/performers. She was great, the other narrator had an annoying accent, to my ears anyway. The moral of the story certainly suggests that enduring abuse in marriage for years until the man/woman of your dreams appears to run off with is a sad fact of the human condition.

A good tale but a bit slow
