Good Things - Paperback

by Kate Macdougall (Author)

Two sisters, one absent father and a grand inheritance . . .

Maggie and Liz may be sisters (and yes, named after a pair of much more famous siblings), but that's about all they have in common. Maggie is a free spirit - travelling the world, flitting through life and relationships without ever really having to connect. Liz, meanwhile, is the lynchpin of Little Martin village society and determined to be the perfect wife, mother and homemaker - even if she does live in a new build.

When Liz and Maggie's beloved grandmother, Queen Vic, dies in a characteristically dramatic fashion, they are left to deal with the aftermath - inheriting the family Manor, as well as full responsibility for their profligate father, a notorious womanizer who causes trouble wherever he goes.

Maggie and Liz have been living separate lives for years - but now might finally be the time to put their differences behind them.
