The Final Hours of Muriel Hinchcliffe M.B.E by Claire Parkin
You may know how this story is going to end, but youll never guess what happens A darkly comic novel about two old friends, a lifelong (toxic) friendship, and the very fine line between love and hate.
It's dark and twisted, comic and toxicI loved it! -- Jenny Colgan, author of The Summer Skies
THE FINAL HOURS OF MURIEL HINCHCLIFFE M.B.E by Claire Parkin has serious vibes of ‘Whatever Happened to Baby Jane’ and you KNOW that’s going to be a winner. A twisty tale of toxic friendships and even some sneaky sedatives added to Heinz tomato soup. * Julie Cohen *
The characterisation is spot-on and the deeper we get into this beautifully drawn portrait of their intensely complicated, often horrific 'friendship', the more shocking and compelling the narrative is . . . Fabulous. * Daily Mail *

Claire Parkin was born and brought up in a village just outside Cardiff, and graduated from King’s College London with an MA in 19th Century English and American Literature. She worked as a journalist on women’s general-interest magazines for many years, writing for Essentials, Woman & Home and Candis, where she was known for being able to turn her hand to pretty much anything – from interviewing boxing champs and war correspondents, to learning how to pole dance and the correct way to iron a shirt. Other career highlights include taste-testing eight varieties of mince pie during an August heatwave, begging Victoria Beckham to donate a dress to a charity raffle, and visiting six second-hand car dealerships in one afternoon, in a bid to expose sexism in the motoring industry.
