Clara Hutt is forty-six yean old and in pretty good nick, considering. She has kick-ass underwear, a large and loving family, and a healthy sense of what matters in life. Until Gaby moves in. Gaby"s an old school friend of Clara who has just returned from LA. She may he a yoga mogul who lives off kale and speaks a made-up fantasy novel language, hut Gaby"s no stranger to cosmetic surgery: she"s almost fifty, hut looks thirty-six at most. What with Gaby, and Clara"s son"s leggy girlfriend, Sky, wafting around the house in her stripy pants, Clara starts to wonder if a little Botox, a little filler, a nip and a tuck, would be so verv wrong. Should she ignore the fear? Or is there another way to grow old gracefully - and how far is she prepared to go to find out?
