Book Synopsis

An outrageously funny, heartbreaking read when Ruby finds out she has cancer on the brink of her 50th birthday, she decides to start living instead of complying...

Ruby has always been the generous mediator among her friends, family and colleagues, which is why they have all turned up to celebrate her 50th birthday.

But after a few too many glasses of champers, Ruby''s speech doesn''t exactly go to plan. Instead of delivering the witty and warm words her guests are expecting, Ruby takes her moment in the spotlight to reveal what she really thinks of every one of them. She also accuses her husband, Harry, of having an affair and lambasts her mother for a lifetime of playing her three daughters against each other. It''s blisteringly brutal.

As the stunned gathering gawks at Ruby, the birthday girl concludes her bravura monologue with the throwaway comment that she has terminal cancer. She has cashed in her life savings and plans on taking her two sisters
