Felicity Craven and Claire Brown are as different as two women can be. Rich, spoilt, egocentric Felicity is the genius behind Craven's Hotel - an exclusive boutique-style haunt of the rich and famous. Plain, mousy Claire sits in an office all day, and goes home every evening to her over-mortgaged semi and a life that is as beige as her duvet cover.
When Felicity's billionaire husband is killed in an industrial accident, she is shocked to discover that her rightful inheritance has been bequeathed to a crass and vulgar Texan mistress. At the same time her idle playboy brother Sebastian hits the headlines in a rent-boy scandal that sends Felicity out on a vengeful path of destruction.
When Claire discovers she is pregnant with the dead man's child, she must confront the limited options of her dilemma, unaware of the complications that lie ahead. For her quiet, unglamorous existence is about to become the talk of London's most fashionable society.
This maliciously enthralling social comedy brings together a colourful cast of disparate characters who illustrate the agonies and absurdities of modern human relationships. Meanwhile, Felicity and Claire are about to discover that desperate measures may be all they have left...
