Synopsis

June the first, a bright summer's evening, a Monday . . .And into the busy, bustling homes at 66 Star Street slips, unseen, a mysterious visitor. As the couples, flatmates and repentant singletons of No 66 fall in and out of love, clutch at and drop secrets, laugh, cry and simply try to live, no one suspects the visitor patiently waiting in the wings. For soon, really very soon, everything is going to change . . .'Zips along with engaging characters, fabulous plotting and spot-on dialogue. Marian Keyes: what a genius.' Daily Mail'Unforgettable and, quite seriously, out favourite Keyes novel yet.' Heat'When it comes to writing page-turners that put a smile on your face and make you think, Keyes is in a class of her own.' Daily Express'An expert storyteller who can make you roar with laughter one minute then sob into your pillow the next. The perfect book to cosy up with.' Sun
