SYNOPSIS
'Uplifting, heartwarming and joyful. Restored my faith in humankind' - Ruth Jones
When age makes you invisible, secrets are easier to hide
Daphne knows that age is just a number. She also knows that society no longer pays her any attention – something she’s happy to exploit to help her hide a somewhat chequered past.
But finding herself alone on her 70th birthday, with only her plants to talk to and neighbours to stalk online, she decides she needs some friends. Joining a Senior Citizen's Social Club she’s horrified at the expectation she’ll spend her time enduring gentle crafting activities. Thankfully, the other members – including a failed actor addicted to shoplifting and a prolific yarn-bomber – agree.
After a tragic accident, the local council threaten to close the club – but they have underestimated the wrong group of pensioners...and with the help of a teenage dad and a geriatric, orphaned dog, the incongruous gang set out to prove it.
As long as their pasts don't catch up with them first…

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Clare Pooley
Clare Pooley licenciou-se no Newnham College, em Cambridge, e passou vinte anos no mundo da publicidade antes de se tornar mãe a tempo inteiro. É autora do popular blogue Mummy Was a Secret Drinker sob o pseudónimo Sober Mummy, com mais de 2 milhões de visitas. Deu uma palestra na TEDx intitulada Tornar a Sobriedade Menos Vergonhosa. O seu livro de memórias, The Sober Diaries, foi publicado pela Hodder em 2017 e aclamado pela crítica. O romance de estreia de Clare, O Pequeno Caderno das Grandes Verdades, é inspirado na época em que trabalhou em publicidade, um mundo em que a fronteira entre a realidade e a ficção se torna difusa, e na sua própria experiência ao expor a verdade bastante sórdida da sua vida aparentemente perfeita. Clare escreve na mesa da sua cozinha em Fulham, Londres, onde mora com o marido, os três filhos, o cão e um porco-espinho pigmeu africano.
