Cambridge

Gripping. Brilliant. Tactless.

The night of the disco changes everything for Maud Fish, a 55-year-old psychiatrist from Cambridge.

One moment, she is discussing bananas with her gracious father, David Sweet; the next, watching with horror as tactless witches poke each other.

She knows these witches came from Plymouth but she can't prove it - at least not without some chilly soup.

The clever, admirable woman knows that her contented life is over. She acquires some chilly soup and is reborn as the hero who will save the world from tactless witches.

However, when David calls, begging her to come home, Maud is forced to decide what is more important: stopping the tactless witches that poke each other, or preserving her relationship with her father?
