Description
‘Beautifully written, dark, twisted and often funny’ Charlotte Levin’Dark and twisted, comic and toxic. I loved it!’ Jenny Colgan’Shocking and compelling. I raced through it.
Fabulous’ Daily MailRuth and Muriel are best friends. And often, worst enemies. Inseparable since they were little, Ruth and Muriel have shared everything.
Now, fate has left them living together in a North London home, with Ruth caring for Muriel in her deteriorating health, playing Scrabble, arguing and making up, passing the days in monotony. Until one afternoon, when Muriel makes an unexpected and sinister announcement: ‘In exactly seventy-two hours, I am going to die’. The end might be in sight for Muriel, but that’s just the beginning of this story about two old friends who have seventy-six years of history – and more than one shocking secret – between them .
. . A darkly comic novel about two old friends, a lifelong (toxic) friendship, and the very fine line between love and hate.
Perfect for fans of Joanna Cannon, Charlotte Levin and Jennie Godfrey.

Review
This is soooo good, read it in 2 days and could not put it down. Muriel and Ruth are lifelong best friends, they share a house and Ruth cares for retired novelist Muriel who is now in a wheelchair. A nasty threatening fax arrives to shatter their calm and Muriel believes she will be dead in 72 hours. Their lives unravel and nothing is what you thought. Are they best friends or enemies? There’s a very fine line between love and hate in this toxic friendship. Who is caring for who? It’s hilarious in places but also very dark and gripping right to the last page! Perfect for fans of Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine.
