About this listen

Meet Mavis Upton. As mummy to 7-year old Ella and surrogate to far too many pets, and with a failed marriage under her belt, Mavis knows she needs to make some life-changing decisions. It's time to strike out into the world, to stand on her own two feet ...to pursue a lifelong ambition to become a police officer. I mean, what could go wrong?

Supported by her quirky, malapropism-suffering mum, Mavis throws herself headlong into a world of uncertainty, self-discovery, fearless escapades, laughter and extra-large knickers. And using her newly discovered investigative skills, she reluctantly embarks on a search to find her errant dad who was last seen years before, making off with her mum's much needed coupon for a fabulous foam cup bra all the way from America.

Follow Mavis as she tackles everything life can throw at her, and revel in Gina Kirkham's humorous, poignant and moving story of an everyday girl who one day followed a dream.

Brilliant

Got this book knowing nothing about the story or the author.
So funny from start to finish. I could relate with many of the stories.
Left on a cliffhanger, I’m definitely going to see if the next book is out and get that too.
Brilliant.

Hilariously funny.

I don’t think I have listened to anything so funny. What a vivid imagination and I’m sure spun round some of her experience’s. My husband was in the Police Force and he can tell a few tales.
Narration was superb.
A very good feel good factor, so if you’re feeling a bit down this is one for you…
