Tomorrow, as the sun burns the dew off the lawns, she´ll close her eyes for the very last time. But she won´t be going quietly. Tonight, Hannah´s throwing an end-of-life party: the drinks are on ice, and the palm trees are strung with lights beneath technicolour skies. And though Hannah has less than twenty-four hours left, she´s holding out for one last, impossible thing... Amongst the guest list is Hannah´s long-lost love Sophie - the woman who Hannah can´t forget, even after forty years. Hannah has to give her greatest love one last try. Soon, the party is in full swing. Hannah waits nervously, unaware that before her last ever dawn breaks, a devastating secret will come to light.
