Jess and Laura might be sisters, but theyre very different people. Laura is laid-back, eats cheese in bed, and takes life as it comes. Jess, meanwhile, is the classic overachiever: Chief of Chivvying, Queen of all WhatsApp groups. Theyre family, but theyre not exactly friends.
but you can let them in.
When their mum dies, the sisters struggle to agree on anything, from where to scatter the ashes to whether passed away is an acceptable term. But as life forces them together, Laura and Jess realise: the only way through this is as a team. After all, theyre stuck with each other and drinking wine is more fun as a pair
