Untitled Sophie McCartney 2027

Social media influencer Annie Cooper is distinctly unimpressed when her husband relocates them to his hometown.

In a post-partum fog Annie is adrift. Thank God for the distraction of hearing from her first love. And then responding – rather inappropriately.

When Annie’s naughty exchange leads to the discovery of a body in the woods, she has to act fast, setting up The NCT – Newly-birthed Crime Trio, with Mum friends Jess and Kate, to prove her innocence.

Sleuthing their way through clumsy midnight break ins and mad-cap trips to Berlin’s finest strip clubs, all while juggling sleep deprivation, they won’t stop until they find out who is trying to bring Annie down. And why.

But can they do all this in time to save Annie’s marriage, and any shred of her reputation?
