Publisher's Summary

Hilarious, binge-worthy, suspenseful fiction, perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and Motherland

They all have opinions. They all have secrets.

In a small town like West Burntridge, it should be impossible to keep a secret.

Rachel Saunders knows gossip is the price you pay for a rural lifestyle and outstanding schools. The latest town scandal is her divorce—and the fact that her new girlfriend has moved into the family home.

Laura Spence lives in a poky bedsit on the wrong side of town. She and her son, Max, don’t really belong, and his violent tantrums are threatening to expose the very thing she’s trying to hide.

When the local school introduces a new inclusive curriculum, Rachel and Laura find themselves on opposite sides of a fearsome debate.

But the problem with having your nose in everyone else’s business is that you often miss what is happening in your own home.

What the critics say

"PTA politics, school gate tensions, the perils of living in a small town where everyone knows your business - both funny and engaging while tackling some serious stuff." (Jane Fallon)

"Cringe-inducing, agonising, truthful, heart-breaking and hilarious." (Janice Hallett, best-selling author of The Appeal)

"Funny, moving, insightful and so sharp on the politics of the school gate and beyond." (Laura Marshall, best-selling author of Friend Request)
