Description
Clara Hutt is forty-six years old and in pretty good nick considering. She has kick-ass underwear a large and loving family and a healthy sense of what matters in life. Until Gaby moves in.
Gaby's an old school friend of Clara's who has just returned from LA. She may be a yoga mogul who lives off kale and speaks a made-up fantasy novel language but Gaby's no stranger to cosmetic surgery: she's almost fifty but looks thirty-six at most.
What with Gaby and Clara's son's leggy girlfriend Sky wafting around the house in her stripy pants Clara starts to wonder if a little Botox a little filler a nip and a tuck would be so very wrong. Should she ignore the fear? Or is there another way to grow old gracefully - and how far is she prepared to go to find out?
