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
A twisty tale of toxic friendships and even some sneaky sedatives added to Heinz tomato soup. -- Julie Mae Cohen, author of Bad Men
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.
