More about the book

Arlene (actually it's Ar-lay-nah) Morrissey is a very successful theatrical agent. She has several phones and a flat decked out in expensive pale pinks and greys. She wears DKNY and doesn't take bullshit. It has taken a long time to construct this persona, and a suprisingly short time for it to fall apart. A visit from a lonely, vulnerable young writer with her bad play touches a part of Arlene she'd thought long buried, and sets in motion a series of events over which for once she has no control.
