Palmer, Fiona,

The long weekend / Fiona Palmer. - Sydney, N.S.W. : Hachette Australia, 2021. - 324 pages ; 24 cm.

Coming together for a writing workshop with bestselling author Jan Goldstein, four strangers converge upon a luxury forest retreat. But along with their notepads and laptops, each of the participants has brought some emotional baggage. Beth is a solo parent and busy career woman haunted by a tragic car accident. Simone, the youngest at 26, is a successful Instagram star but she's hiding behind a facade. Jamie is the only man. He's a handsome personal trainer - but he looks out of place with a pen in his hand. Finally, Alice is a wife and mum recovering from post-natal depression. She and Jamie soon realise they are not such perfect strangers after all. Only one thing is for sure: on this creative getaway, nothing will go according to script.
