  • More about The Girls


Four old friends are thrown back together after forty years apart, and things take a sinister turn when Zara reveals the real reason she asked them to move in with her. With their lives spiraling out of control, can they save their friendships and each other?

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 384 pages
Publication date: 14 April 2022
Publisher: Head of Zeus


In the 1970s, The Girls were best friends sharing a house and good times: Zara the famous diva actor, Val the uptight solicitor, Jackie the wild child and Pauline the quirky introvert. Now they're in their twilight years, and Zara suggests that they live with her to support each other through old age. Initially, being housemates again is just as much fun as in their heyday. But then Zara reveals the real reason she asked them to move in with her, and suddenly things take a sinister turn.

As the women confront their demons, they come under the spotlight of the press, the police, and an angry parrot. With their lives spiraling out of control, can they save their friendships and each other?
