‘Funny, touching and wise, I loved it’ Kit de Waal, bestselling author of My Name Is Leon
Wendy is lonely, misunderstood but coping. After her mum died, all she wants is to drive the 255 bus around Uddingston with her regulars on board, remember to buy milk when it runs out and just to be okay.
But with the encouragement of her social worker, Wendy is ready to step out of her comfort zone and meet new people. Although as her carefully planned routine begins to change, Wendy wonders if things were easier before she met new best friend, Ginger. Because Ginger is hiding something and it’s about to get them into a lot of trouble…
