Sparks fly between Nicola Albright KC and Geeta Sachdeva, but not the good kind. They're the sort that leave small fires, devastation, and everyone peeping between their fingers at arrogant lawyer, Nicola, on one side, and everyone's favorite mum, Geeta, on the other. Yet when both are divorced and at a new stage in life, they find themselves living within glowering distance of each other, in beautiful Iffley Village, Oxford. Reluctantly, they call a truce and try to make friends. It's tricky though, when there's more than one reason they've circled and snapped for years.

Kate seems nothing like the screen goddesses she plays, and Olivia must put aside her comfort viewing and handle the case like the true professional she is.
