Fallen Angels

In a pastel Art Deco apartment good enough to eat, two wealthy London wives wave their husbands off to play golf. Julia Sterroll and Jane Banbury are best friends with a shared secret: before they married, each had a passionate affair with the same Frenchman. Now Maurice is on his way, and as they wait in drop-waist gowns the champagne starts to work, interrupted at every turn by Saunders, a maid with a colourful past and a fact for every occasion.
