In 1955, former nightclub manageress Ruth Ellis shot dead her lover, David Blakely. Following a trial that lasted less than two days, she was found guilty and sentenced to death. She became the last woman to be hanged in Britain, and her execution is the most notorious of hangman Albert Pierrepoint's 'duties'. Despite Ruth's infamy, the story of her life has never been fully told. Often wilfully misinterpreted, the reality behind the headlines was buried by an avalanche of hearsay.

Following in the footsteps of Peter Mayle's A Year in Provence, Tout Sweet is now a classic of the French memoir genre, cataloguing the disasters–and triumphs–of a former newspaper fashion editor, who waves goodbye to her glamorous city lifestyle and extensive shoe collection, to renovate a run-down house in rural France. Acquiring a host of new friends and unsuitable suitors, she learns that true happiness can be found in the simplest of things–a bike ride through the countryside on a summer evening, or a kir or three in a neighbour's courtyard.
