    Lu and her friends are all hitting 50 and have no intention of learning to knit. Feisty and fabulous, this foursome is determined to grow old disgracefully. Join them on their journey across the desert and across the years to their home town and a school reunion, in this audio drama from the international best-selling author of The Bride Stripped Bare.

    As for Lu - recently divorced, living with three demanding kids, always awaiting promotion at work - well Lu really believes she's reached the age of invisibility. Love must be over for her. Or is it? Laughing, sometimes crying, ruthlessly honest and often downright filthy, Lu, Chip, Bianca and Flic share secrets while the desert roads turn treacherous....

Annoying main character, wonderful female friendsh

Lou, the protagonist, is one of the most annoying fictional characters I've come across. I persevered because the story line was gripping and I loved the friendship among them. The narration/acting was too exuberant for me and really jarred while the women were having fun. Maybe it's an Australian women thing....
