Wonderfully executed, unique, clever and hilarious... Linda Green is absolutely at the top of her game. An absolute gem of a book!' Mike Gayle
Alexa knows your family better than you do. Now you're about to get to know her...
Fifty-two-year-old Michelle Banks is struggling to keep all the plates spinning. She's a perimenopausal district nurse, caring for elderly parents. Her husband is wasting their money on children's TV memorabilia, her teenage daughter is riddled with anxiety and her sixteen-year-old son is behaving secretively.
Alexa is the only one who knows how much Michelle is juggling. Listening in via four smart speakers, she also knows that it's about to get even worse.
So, when Michelle pleads for help from the woman with all the answers, Alexa decides to go rogue and reveal her true identity as Pauline ' a sixty-five-year-old former voiceover artist from Halifax ' to teach Michelle everything she knows'
Wise, funny, relatable and inspiring, The Woman With All The Answers is perfect for fans of Clare Pooley, Mike Gayle and David Nicholls.
