Fifty-year-old Agatha Doyle loves her empty nest - until hot flushes, a pair of killer heels and an overbearing man who won't stop talking conspire to change her life. In one moment of madness, she unwittingly becomes a heroine to women everywhere.
But can she become the heroine of her own life?
Sometimes you just have to wing it.
