Description
A laugh-out-loud novel from bestselling author Wendy Holden. Perfect for fans of The Devil Wears Prada, Bridget Jones and Sophie Kinsella.
Top reporter Laura Lake has struck journalistic gold.
She’s discovered a secret country village where the British elite own weekend mansions. Film stars, famous artists and top writers, not to mention Cabinet ministers and the cream of M16, land their helicopters in the grounds of the gastropub. Far from the prying eyes of the paparazzi they compete in the world’s most exclusive pub quiz and fight for parts in the celebrity panto.
But how is Laura to gain access to this undercover Eden, whose borders are strictly controlled? Luckily her billionairess friend Lulu, a logo-obsessed socialite with a heart as huge as her sunglasses, suddenly fancies a quiet life in the country.
Can Laura gatecrash the pub quiz, infiltrate the panto and write her exposé before the snobbish villagers discover her identity? And before Lulu gets fed up and flees back to Kensington?

This is the first Wendy Holden book I've read and I wasn't disappointed. It's clever and funny, the characters are great and I loved the ending. Don't worry, no spoilers! It's just a great story that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat, convinced you know whats going to happen and laughing out loud as you get drawn into the plot.

This is such a fun read – warm, witty and I defy anyone not to giggle all the way through!
Laura Lake has the weirdest colleagues and even more outlandish friends and I loved every one of them. Wendy Holden is an author I have read previously – oops, some time ago – but her talent in choosing wild and wacky names for her characters hasn’t diminished one bit and she follows through with her fabulous descriptions of some very strange characters indeed! The basic storyline is good, but the embellishments are what makes this story GREAT.
I had the strangest moments working out characters genres – it’s really not so easy to decide whether ‘Wonky’ is male or female and as for ‘Vlad’ .. well, read the book and you’ll see what I mean! Would I recommend this – you bet! Give yourself a treat and line this one up .. you’ll raise your spirits, laugh out loud and have the best time!
My thanks to publishers Head of Zeus for approving my copy via NetGalley. This is my honest, original and unbiased review.
