Four very different young women are drawn together by the loss of a dearly loved friend in this warm and engaging novel.
Minor career worries, arguments over whose turn it is to do the cooking, niggles over a daughter's wedding, and too much chemistry homework - these are the kinds of problems that absorb Anna, Maggie, Jess and Ingrid. Until somebody else's tragedy brushes gentle fingertips over their lives and, suddenly, they each realise that they've got everything out of proportion.
As they seek support from one another in their sadness, each comes to see that life is for living: they've got to grab it with both hands.
'Best Of Friends' contains all of Cathy Kelly's trademarks - warmth, romance, optimism and wit, and completely absorbing storytelling.
