Margret has come to the end of working career and a life populated with false friends and empty relationships, and all that is left is the prospect of a life alone. The only perverse, and dark upside to this is that her remaining time will be short lived - For Margret Laine is dying.

When the plane journey home connects her to Alison, a strange but outgoing girl almost half her age, Margret learns to face her true self.

Someone she has little to do with for over thirty years.

This is the fifth and final volume of the Seductive Reasoning series.
