About this listen

When life gives you lemons, make gin and tonic!

It's been a tough year for empty-nester Jen in her seaside Devon town; her kids have left for pastures new, and her husband's left for another woman.

Home alone with her eccentric home-brewing father and a Jack Russell, she is just getting her life back on track when her job at the local museum is threatened by her first love and nemesis, Councillor David Barton, who intends to sell the beautiful old building to a pub chain. But help is at hand from her colleagues: Jackie, a former Greenham Common warrior; Tish, a flamboyant historian; and Carol, mega-flirt. Plus newcomer and former campaigner Tom. Who happens to be a widower. And quite sexy. And also the owner of a Jack Russell.

The key to saving the day and putting the town back on the tourist map could lie just within reach - when reaching for a cold gin and tonic, that is. Mother's Ruin to some, gin is the making of Jen when she comes together with her friends and family to save the museum and open an artisan distillery in the basement.

With its debauched local history of smuggling, can gin be the town's saviour and bring love back into Jen's life?

Enjoyed this, but as a Devonian - why invent odd names for recognisable towns and villages?

Wasn’t sure if it was my normal type of book and took me a short while to get into it, but then I got hooked! Great story…charming and funny and sad and moving…and so beautifully read by Sophie Aldred…she somehow makes you forget there’s only one person reading it…her characterisation is superb

Captivated
