About this listen

'Outrageously readable' Daily Mail
'Beautifully written, dark, twisted and often funny' - Charlotte Levin
'Dark and twisted, comic and toxic. I loved it!' - Jenny Colgan


Ruth and Muriel are best friends. And often, worst enemies.

Inseparable since they were little, Ruth and Muriel have shared everything.

Now, fate has left them living together in a North London home, with Ruth caring for Muriel in her deteriorating health, playing Scrabble, arguing and making up, passing the days in monotony.

Until one afternoon, when Muriel makes an unexpected and sinister announcement: ‘In exactly seventy-two hours, I am going to die’.

The end might be in sight for Muriel, but that’s just the beginning of this story about two old friends who have seventy-six years of history – and more than one shocking secret – between them . . .

A darkly comic novel about two old friends, a lifelong (toxic) friendship, and the very fine line between love and hate. Perfect for fans of Joanna Cannon, Charlotte Levin and Jennie Godfrey.

Every aspect from story to narration were brilliant. A true pleasure to submerge one's self in the world of Muriel and Ruth.

It is a truly weird and wonderful ride. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it!

I stopped listening as I couldn’t cope with the narrator’s voice. Far too fast and agitated. Sorry
