It is 1982 and Thatcher is in Downing Street, Human League is in the charts and Dallas is on the telly. Living increasingly separate lives, the tie that binds them grows thinner, until tragedy brings them back together, giving them a chance to refocus themselves on their friendship, their misdirected lives, and their survival.

In this gripping domestic drama, two couples, best friends for years, decide to move in together, leading to unexpected complications. Harriet and Mark enjoy successful careers and a comfortable life in a London suburb, while Yvette and Gary live in a smaller, less glamorous home with their daughters. The collective move north promises a fresh start: Mark seeks to escape the rat race, Harriet hopes to distract herself from her unfulfilled desire for a third child, Gary aims to revive his former band, and Yvette wishes to provide her daughters with opportunities she never had. However, as they settle into their new living arrangements, the reality of shared life reveals mid-life crises and hidden tensions, transforming their dream into a nightmare. The narrative has been praised for its sharp and dark twists, exploring unhealthy relationships rooted in insecurity and delusion. Readers can expect a raw realism that grips them from the first page to the last, making it a perfect companion for cozy evenings. With themes of friendship, ambition, and the complexities of shared lives, this tale serves as a cautionary reminder of the challenges that arise when personal dreams collide.

Meet the new neighbours. Whose side are you on? When Gav and Lou move into the house next door, Sara spends days plucking up courage to say hello. The neighbours are glamorous, chaotic and just a little eccentric. They make the rest of Sara's street seem dull by comparison. When the hand of friendship is extended, Sara is delighted and flattered. Incredibly, Gav and Lou seem to see something in Sara and Neil that they admire too. In no time at all, the two couples are soulmates, sharing suppers, bottles of red wine and childcare, laughing and trading stories and secrets late into the night in one another's houses. And the more time Sara spends with Gav and Lou, the more she longs to make changes in her own life. But those changes will come at a price
