Description
Welcome to Shellwater Bay, where the sea is calm, the scenery idyllic... and three women are quietly planning a revolution.
Joany appears to have the perfect life, but behind closed doors, she's hiding a dangerous secret. Heather thinks her marriage is rock-solid until her husband demands a divorce. Steph is raising kids with a man who thinks 'helping out' means calling his mother.
Bonded at their gym by sweat and fury, the women swap stories about the silent bargains they've made to keep the peace in their relationships.
But peace has its price. And when the simmering rage starts to bubble over, these new friends decide a crime or two is in order...
'A fun and funny romp with female friendship at its heart.' - Kathy Lette, author of The Sisterhood Rules
'From angry teachers to angry wives, Gabbie Stroud's humour, empathy and - yes - fury about women's lives make for a deeply satisfying and cathartic read.' - Jane Caro, author of Lyrebird

About the Author
Gabbie Stroud is a novelist and recovering teacher. After years of juggling the demands of the primary classroom, she made the painful decision to leave the profession she had loved. In 2016, her critical commentary of Australia's education system was published in Griffith Review's Edition 51 Fixing the System, which went on to be shortlisted for a Walkley Award.
Gabbie's smash-hit memoir, Teacher, was shortlisted for Biography Book of the Year at the 2018 Australian Book Industry Awards, and continues to contribute to the national dialogue on education. In 2020 her next book, Dear Parents, offered a passionate call to arms for all parents. Gabbie's first young adult novel, Measuring Up, was published by Scribe in 2009. Her debut novel for adults, The Things That Matter Most, was published to wide acclaim in 2023, and was longlisted for Best Debut Fiction at the Indie Book Awards.
Gabbie lives on Yuin Country on the far south coast of New South Wales with her amazing daughters, Olivia and Sophie, and the love of her life, Clint Wilkie.
