Angels

'I'd always lived a fairly blameless life. Up until the day I left my husband and ran away to Hollywood . . . ' Unlike the rest of her family, Maggie Walsh has always done everything right. At thirty-three she has a proper job, is happily married to Garv and never puts a foot wrong. So why does she make a bolt for Hollywood and her best friend, Emily? In the City of Angels, Maggie gets to do things she's never done before- mixing with film stars, pitching scripts, partying non-stop. But is this really a once-in-a-lifetime journey of self-discovery, or is she simply running away from married life? 'Funny, compassionate, well-observed and irreverent.' Time Out'Keyes writes brilliantly, as always, about love, grief, jealousy and friendship.' Daily Mail'Witty, wicked and yet moving. A novel to both laugh and cry over.' Ireland on Sunday
