There aren't enough hours in the day for Jo, overworked newspaper reporter, mother of two, and newly divorced after ten years of marriage. What's she going to investigate this week? Are vaccinations safe? Does cling film kill? She's getting close to cracking the biggest scoop of her career - if she could just land an interview with the intriguing environmentalist who won't talk to her. But how will Jo meet her deadlines when her distractions include two needy daughters and a Barbie birthday party to organise; her pompous ex-husband and his pneumatic girlfriend; her best friend Bella Browning; and the romantic intentions of a scruffy but delicious young super-chef?
About the Author
Carmen was born and brought up in a chilly and windy corner of Scotland in the depths of the countryside.This may explain her lifelong phobia of cows and abiding interest in cities, department stores, books, the cinema and newspapers.She is currently working on her eigth novel for grown-ups and her third novel for teenagers. Well, she likes to keep busy.Carmen did once study English Literature at University College London, but, ignoring everything she’d learned, she spent most of her 20s working as a local, regional and then national newspaper reporter.Knowing deep down that she was supposed to be an author not a journo, she left her day job to have a baby and write her first novel. (Hey, and just four sleepless, penniless years later it was published!)Although there is a corner of her heart that will always belong to London (property developers welcome) she now lives in Glasgow, Scotland, with her husband, Thomas, and two children, Sam and Claudie, plus Jimmy the (lunatic) Jack Russell and Clive, Orangey and Gorcha, the fish.Fortunately her hobbies are cooking, cleaning, arguing about whose turn it is to walk the dog, clean the fish tank, take out the rubbish, do the laundry... and so on.
