One woman's journey from invisibility to being seen once more, as she strives to save her beloved community allotment, perfect for fans of The Lido and Keeper of Stories.

Ignored. Overlooked. But they're about to prove everyone wrong...

Janet Pimm is used to being invisible. 70 something, with her beloved allotment for company, she simply doesn't need anyone else.

But when the local council threaten to close the allotments, Janet will do anything she can to try to save them - even enlisting the help of her irritatingly upbeat and interfering neighbour, Bev.

As the two women set off on a journey together, Janet begins to realise that perhaps she isn't so happy to blend into the background after all. And that maybe there's more to Bev than she first thought. As they fight to save the place Janet loves most, both women find their voice again and no one can silence them now...

A story of friendship, female lives post-menopause, community spirit and the importance of connection.

Reviews for The Invisible Women’s Club

This lovely book wraps you in warmth and wisdom . . . A wonderfully human story about friendship, gardening and the strength we gain from standing up for what we believe in - and why you should never underestimate the power of a warrior woman, no matter how old she is! * Julietta Henderson, author of The Funny Thing About Norman Foreman * A delightful, funny, romp of a book with mystery and romance to boot. Paris can't put a foot wrong. I adored it * Ericka Waller, author of Dog Days * A joyous celebration of female friendship, community, and the power and freedom found in later life, it will warm the cockles of your heart * The Sunday Post * Feel good treat * I paper * There's something so relatable about this story of unlikely friendships, fighting for what you believe in, and the power of a community coming together for a common cause . . . A heartening read * CultureFly *
