Description

On the eve of her 39th birthday, top barrister Ophelia Dormandy decides she is going to make amends. Tonight, after months of late nights at her desk, she’s going to return home early, cook a special supper – maybe wear that red dress Patrick once said he liked... But Ophelia is in for a shock. After 20 years of marriage, her husband announces he’s been having an affair, and leaves. Her home life implodes, and work soon follows suit – before long, she’s broke, drinking too much and falling for a client of questionable guilt. And then she is faced with the most serious trial of her life, when a disgruntled defendant comes back to haunt her, threatening everything that she holds dear. Shifting between the world of wig and gown in London’s Inner Temple and fraught domesticity in Camberwell, Ophelia in Pieces is a book for every woman trying to juggle work and home life, worried that they are failing at both. But ultimately it is about the painful, character-building business of having to pick up the pieces when everything seems utterly broken.
