About this listen

Gordon Hammond, 65, a builder who has built up his own, modestly successful business, has a heart attack. Whilst recovering in hospital he falls in love with April, a young black nurse, and leaves Dorothy, his wife of 45 years to set up home with her.

Dorothy is released like a loose cannon into the lives of her three daughters and chaos ensues. More relationships break up, passions run high and dramatic developments ensue that will change the Hammond family forever.

Critic reviews

'A lovely, intricately-crafted novel, with some very memorable characters and lines of prose I found myself recalling with a smile.' (Petrina Binney, author of the Sex, Death and Dinner series)
