Shoe Addicts Anonymous
Shoe Addicts Anonymous
Synopsis
Helene Zaharis is a politician's wife whose husband controls her through her credit cards. Lorna Rafferty is deep in debt from an eBay habit she cannot break. Sandra Vanderslice is agoraphobic and works as a phone sex operator without leaving her flat. Jocelyn Bowen is a nanny for a difficult family.
What they have in common is a shoe size, and on Tuesday nights they meet to trade shoes. What begins as a swap becomes something more: as the four keep meeting, they find themselves helping each other through secret pasts, blackmail, looming bankruptcy and complicated men.
Shoe Addicts Anonymous is the first book in Beth Harbison's Shoe Addict series and her best-known novel — funny and light on the surface, with real difficulty running underneath.
