Annie Murphy is quick witted, funny and loved by everyone in her council estate. Broke and facing cancer for the fourth time, she has developed a unique perspective on her situation. Her attitude to the disease is 'once the bullet has left the gun, there's no point trying to outrun it'. Scraping a living from working in her friend's fish shop, she tries to keep her head above water. When her husband dies suddenly, owing five thousand euro to a money lender called Mixer, she discovers his debt is now hers. Resorting to unusual methods to repay the money, she forms a bizarre relationship with Mixer and realises that people are often not how they appear. When told her cancer has become terminal, she sets out on an ambitious project to ensure she leaves her mark on society.
Claudia Spellman-Lee is spoilt, selfish and very wealthy. She leads a charmed existence, until she discovers a lump on her breast. With no children or close friends to offer support, she clings to her husband, Donald, who is not all he seems. When he disappears under suspicious circumstances, she has to fend for herself for the first time in her life. As more revelations about him are uncovered, Claudia's world as she knew it begins to disintegrate. She soon discovers that hitting rock bottom is the best way to propel you back up.
When Annie and Claudia meet during a chemotherapy drug trial, they detest each other immediately and sparks fly. The only thing they have in common is breast cancer. Anxious to take a stand against the disease before it kills her, Annie decides to organise a huge strip and dip event and she expects everyone to join in. The two women discover that friendship can be found in the last place you look because, sometimes, you only find the beginning at the end.
