Book excerpt: Mum always knows best. Meet the daughters of Iris Parker. Dee, sensitive and big-hearted; Rose, uptight and controlled and Fleur, the reckless free spirit. At the reading of their mother's will, the 3 estranged women are aghast to discover that their inheritance comes with very tricky strings attached. If they are to inherit her wealth, they must spend a series of weekends together over the course of a year and carry out their mother's 'bucket list'. But one year doesn't seem like nearly enough time for them to move past the decades-old layers of squabbles and misunderstandings.
