Summary
From the author of the beloved novel Lenny Marks Gets Away With Murder comes another quirky and irresistible new crime novel
Strange things are happening behind the bright pink facade of Bayside’s premier laundromat, Joyful Suds; home to Joy Moody and her twin daughters.
For much of their lives, Joy has been lying to Cassie and Andie. What started as a colorful tale to explain how the twins came to live with her grew over the years and was always something she meant to set straight. Joy really did think she had more time. Worse still, Joy is struggling to define the truth from the lies.
The girls have long believed they are vital to the future and must stay hidden to stay safe. Joy has told them that their impending 21st birthday is significant; they will step into their roles as daughters of the future revolution and life as they know it will change. Joy was right—everything will change, just not in the way the expected. On Andie and Cassie’s birthday, Joy Moody is found dead and her girls face a world they are not prepared for without their mother. Joy Moody is out of time… in more ways than one.
Critic reviews
“Mayne combines her signature dark humour with insightful observations about what it means to be a mother, to create a page turning suspense that will have readers guessing to the very last page.” –Lisa Ireland, author of The One and Only Dolly Jamieson
“Unique and quirky, this is a charming who-done-what mystery with a cast of original characters.” –Sarah Bailey, bestselling author of The Housemate
“By turns quirky and suspenseful, and always keeping the reader wrong-footed, this book is for readers who liked Lenny Marks Gets Away with Murder, the suburban edginess of Liane Moriarty, or the deep characterisation of Paula Hawkins.” –Books & Publishing
