Klappentext

They said they'd never let a man get in the way of their friendship...

Laura and Dee haven't spoken since the day they buried a body together.

It was supposed to be the best summer of their lives. A break from university, from parents, from wasting their time on Irish boys with farmer's tans.

They'd imagined flirting with Ryan Phillippe on a New York rooftop. Instead, with summer jobs waitressing at a country club on Long Island, pickings are slim.

Mikey is a bully. Marco is off limits. Jose is angry. Mr Haight is a sleaze. Josh is too keen. And Other Josh. he's something else entirely.
It's a miracle only one of them ends up dead.

Dee is pretty sure she didn't mean to kill him. Laura, to her credit, never asked.

Not until she sends an email, out of the blue, more than twenty years later. It's finally time to mend the biggest heartbreak of that summer; Laura wants her best friend back.

A hilarious and heartfelt story about friendship, young women and bad men. Sarah Breen and Emer McLysaght bring their trademark Aisling humour in this completely new direction. Noughties nostalgia and a dead body, it's the novel you didn't know you needed.
