Thelma and Louise meets The Golden Girls in the BRAND NEW laugh-out-loud, relatable read from MILLION COPY bestseller Judy Leigh! Perfect for fans of Dawn French and Caroline James! ????? Age is just a number. Trouble is a lifestyle. When octogenarian sisters-in-law Sadie and Bronagh find themselves at the centre of a scandalous (and slightly explosive) bake-off fiasco, there’s only one thing to do – steal Sadie’s grandson’s gleaming red Ferrari and make a run for it. Sadie is the practical one, all cardigans and contingency plans. Bronagh treats rules as loose suggestions – especially if mischief or wine is involved. What begins as a quick getaway across Ireland soon spirals into a wild, cross-country adventure filled with fake identities, unexpected friendships, and more than a few brushes with the law. Sadie and Bronagh may be on the run, but what they find at the journey’s end might just be what they were missing all along… A heartwarming, hilarious tale of rebellion, rediscovery, and the true meaning of family. Praise for Judy Leigh: 'I loved this book. It's funny, emotional and a book that fills you with determination not to let life pass you by as you get older.'

It's light, fresh and breezy, She gives aging a sparkle, that doesn't make it seem scary but something to embrace and enjoy to the maximum.’ ‘Judy Leigh has become one of my favourite authors. Her writing is amazing. I have read most of her novels and look forward to the next one.’ ‘I hope you too pick up this heart warming, fun-filled frolicking story of friendship and love. It is well worth a read.’ ‘As usual, Judy Leigh excelled at imagining her characters, and it was a treat to follow their adventures. Of course, I don’t include spoilers, but I can certainly promise a story filled with the very best kind of people, love, and a reminder that age is just a state of mind.’

The inhabitants of Seal Bay are charming, vibrant and humorous and there is plenty to love in this thoroughly engrossing story. Morwenna makes a great lead character and I am keen to read more in this lovely series.’ ??????????‘I adore all Judy Leigh’s books. They are warm, witty, welcoming and extremely well executed. I always know I will be in for a treat when I pick up one of her books.’ ??????????‘It's a cozy type mystery with family, drama and even a little romance thrown in, showing that you are never too old- for anything if you put your mind to it. A brilliantly entertaining read, I look forward to more in the series.’ ??????????‘Morwenna is truly unique. At a time when most women would be happy to take it easy, she is intent on taking on more. Her work and family are important to her, but it is her determination to solve a mystery that makes her stand out. She is feisty and unrelenting. She puts herself in peril again and again, never stopping to consider the danger. A great mystery with a fantastic leading lady.’ ??????????‘Well written with an enjoyable mystery. I really like the fact Judy Leigh peoples her books with more mature characters and Morwenna is one of my favourites.’ ??????????‘As well as the humour and wit in her novels and the fabulous characters and stories, her settings are excellent too. In the Morwenna Mutton series, Seal Bay comes to life with its coast, all the little shops around and the people who live and work in the area. It’s all so easy to picture and you feel like you are there, right in with all the action.’ ??????????
