About this listen
Three women, three secrets, one life-changing journey.
Alice has always been a trailblazer as a scientist, activist, and mother. She knew her choices would involve sacrifices, but now, on the eve of her 80th birthday, she's beginning to wonder if she's sacrificed too much.
Alice's daughter, Sappho, rebelled against her unconventional upbringing, choosing to marry young and embrace life as a homemaker, but her status as a domestic goddess has recently taken a surprising turn.
Ged has always been the peacemaker between her grandmother and mother. A tenacious journalist, she knows what she wants in life and love, yet when everything in her world starts falling apart, she begins to question whether she really knows anyone at all.
At a crossroads in each of their lives, Alice, Sappho, and Ged embark on a celebratory trip together, but instead of bringing them closer, the holiday sparks life-changing consequences and lifts the lid on a 50-year-old secret.
Can Ged rescue her family if their story is built on a betrayal?
From best-selling, ABIA award-winning author Rachael Johns comes an engrossing and wise novel about ambition, choices, and what it means to be a woman.

An amazing story, this is one not to be missed
We have Geraldine (Ged for short), the main character. Ged is a journalist. Works in the same office as Christos, a divorced father of 3, that complicates their relationship by saying he is moving back with his ex, for the childrens sake ... "pretending to be married".
We have Gralice, Geds Grandmother. Gralice is a diehard feminist, who shouts the immediate family on a themed cruise ship, trip.
We have Geds Mum, who is known on social media as the happy happy housewife, who is so wrapped up with Instagram and her you tube channel.
Casey Withoos was great with the delivery of the story
All 3 have secrets of their own that seem to jump ashore to bite them when they come back onto land and we aren't talking about blue bottles here.
Unfortunately these 3 secrets grow very large it's hard to ignore and one by one, all 3 ladies have to come to terms of revealing all.
Quote I enjoyed
I believe one is happier if they look to the future rather than dwell on the past. That's always been my life motto.
