SHORTLISTED FOR THE IRISH BOOK AWARDS - NEWCOMER OF THE YEAR So brilliant ... I highly recommend it Dolly Alderton I loved it. The writing is whipsmart and so witty Marian Keyes Jane Peters is an adrift twenty-something by day, and a world-weary agony aunt by night. But when an office party goes too far, Jane dissolves into the high-stakes world of being the Other Woman: a role she has the right advice for, but not the smarts to follow through on. What starts out as a drunken mistake quickly unravels as Jane discovers that sex and power go hand-in-hand, and that its hard to keep your head when youve become someone elses dirty little secret. And soon, her friendships, her sanity and even her life are put into jeopardy... A future classic. Jane Casey Sharp, pithy and engaging Irish Times Brilliant Elle Deeply relatable and darkly comic ... Itll have you nodding with familiarity, thinking, laughing - and crying - as you race towards the end Grazia I loved Promising Young Women. Its like Bluebeard crossed with The Yellow Wallpaper neck-deep in zeitgeist. If Angela Carter was stuck in a soulless corporate job this would be the dark, delicious result Sharlene Teo, author of Ponti
