Description: "After her escape from an old people's home where her son, Jack, and his new partner have placed her, Agnes's quest to find her grandchildren is complicated by unexpected encounters. These new friends include: Joe, the helpful lorry driver; Molly, the garrulous hotel-owner; Gazza, the student; and Felix, the retired barrister's clerk, whom Agnes pulls back from attempted suicide. Hoping to rekindle Felix's desire to live, she invents the "Dangerous Sports Euthanasia Society, " but soon fears that this falsehood, having acquired a momentum of its own, will end in tragedy."--BOOK COVER.
