Louise O'Neill --- Three friends at life-changing crossroads . . . Matilda: Living the dream: presenting breakfast TV in Dublin and married to a man with a mega media career in the UK. But when she turns up in their London flat to surprise him for his birthday, it's she who gets a shock. Sadie:Clinging to her journalism career because, apart from a snooty dog, it's all she has. Her house is falling apart, her romantic life is just as ramshackle and nasty flashbacks to her past are becoming more than just a nuisance. Jess: The one who was sorted early - married a lovely man, had two gorgeous babies.
