With all this going on, she still has to consider her dwindling family, her very strange cats, and what, if anything, is going to change in her future. A few weeks ago, her cottage, the cats, and her bucket list were enough. Now she’s making a comeback but where will it take her? She can go home to her reclusive existence, but there’s so much more to life than wrestling with cranky lemon trees. Pip thinks she might be up to it, but what if she’s wrong?

Book excerpt: Pippin Pearmain is enjoying the busiest week of her life. As a child star turned jobbing actor, she’s used to tight deadlines and patient waiting around, but this return to the world of stage and film after ten years of unofficial retirement is a whole new experience. Filming Half-Life of the Lost would be enough for most sixty-something women, but Pip also has to attend the world premiere of her ballet, Delphine, and dance the principal role in her second ballet, Queen of the Clowder. A grey leotard with a stocking tail and Alice-band ears is fine for a costume, but Pip ends up with a glorious silver crown. For someone who doesn’t do jewellery, she seems to be accumulating quite a lot! She has new friendships to cultivate and, as the sunset falls on her most challenging film role ever, she has a strange encounter that’s been fifty years in the making. Back home in quiet Jellico Bay, Pip joins a new friend in a mad expedition to her childhood home to fulfil a promise. Along with her film co-star and two peculiar cats, Pip creeps into the garden under a full moon…

Book excerpt: Pippin Pearmain leaves her beloved Lemonwood Cottage in the care of the cats and Cousin Clarkia while she flies to Sydney for her first screen test in decades. A new role, a new agent and a new challenge await, but Pip is sixty-six and she’s not sure a comeback is what she wants. Behind her lies a comfortable but eccentric life of performing in offbeat roles, and a decade of living alone. She’s short of family and friends, but she has the surprisingly conversational cats, the cottage, and her memories. She has her bucket list and plans for an interesting personal project involving an album and decoupage. Is that enough? Or should she jump feet-first into her new role and see where a comeback takes her? Pip’s few days in Sydney teem with new possibilities, none of which involve decoupage. Mind you, she’ll get to that sometime, once she’s sorted out two ballets, a film, and a festival.
