Muriel, a former bestselling romantic novelist, and Ruth, a career journalist, are old friends, best friends, and yet do they really even like each other at all?
As children they were inseparable. Throughout the years, life's obstacles have tainted their relationship, but they still love each other. Don't they?
Now fate has left them sharing a North London home, with one caring for the other. They rely on each other, they couldn't possibly live without one another, but are either of them being honest about the emotional scars etched on their minds as a consequence of the other's actions?
Only one thing is certain: the next seventy-two hours are going to be rougher than ever.
