If you are a fan of the novel ‘Big, Little Lies' then you will love this. It's a story of female comradery, motherhood, power and fighting for justice.

It begins with a death. Three witness statements reveal that an unknown person has jumped off of a building during the busy lunch rush. Chapter One then takes you back to two months prior to ‘The Day it began'. The CEO Desmond Bankhole is found dead one morning due to a heart attack. There is talk that Ames Garrett may take over the role of CEO. Although Ames is a married man, it is rumoured that he is a sexual predator and is placed on the BAD list (a list of male co workers to avoid). The novel follows four powerful, strong women as they try to fight for their right within the work place and protect others from the sexual harassment of the males surrounding them. ⠀⠀⠀

There was a lot going on in this novel. Very up to date with lots of topical issues from the Me Too movement through to postpartum depression and gender equality. It was fast paced, cleverly written and oozing with ‘girl power'!
