After thirty long years, Louisa's daughters can finally look after themselves ... or so she thinks.

Because suddenly, they're back - apparently for good. Meg's second-guessing her marriage. Jo's career hangs in the balance. Amy has inexplicably quit university. None of them empty the dishwasher.

Louisa knows it's time for some life lessons. She adores her girls, but if she's ever going to get her (sex) life back, they'll have to grow up - and go.

But maybe they're not the only ones with lessons to learn... And Louisa might just discover that her daughters have something to teach her about being an adult too.
