Kate curled up on the settee and thought about David, her husband, her one true love who she had walked out on hoping to shock him into saving their marriage by stopping gambling. It had worked, he had stopped but David had found other arms to comfort him. These three girls form a lasting friendship, brought together by their charity shop work, a lasting intuitive friendship giving each other the support they needed.

She is their favourite volunteer. She’s the lovable perfect grandma everyone wishes they had. But things are not quite as they seem…
