Eliza Peabody is one of those dangerously blameless women who believe they have God in their pocket She is a modern-day Florence Nightingale always up at the Hospice or the Wives' club; she is too enthusiastic; she talks too much Her concern for the welfare of her wealthy south London neighbours even extends to ingenuous well-meaning notes of unsolicited advice under the door It is just such a one-sided correspondence that heralds Eliza's undoing Did her letter have something to do with Joan's abrupt disappearance from number forty-one? What to make of the long absences of her husband & Joan's & of the two men's new inseparable friendship? & why will no one else on Rathbone Road speak of Joan? As Eliza's own life seems to disintegrate she finds that despite the pity & embarrassment with which her neighbours greet her she is at last being drawn into their lives
- although not in the way she had once fantasised about This is a sharp poignant & wickedly funny tale of love heartache & disillusionment
