The Benefactors by Wendy Erskine Meet Frankie, Miriam and Bronagh: three very different women from Belfast, but all mothers to 18-year-old boys. Gorgeous Frankie, now married to a wealthy, older man, grew up in care. Miriam has recently lost her beloved husband Kahlil in ambiguous circumstances. Bronagh, the CEO of a children's services charity, loves celebrity and prestige. When their sons are accused of sexually assaulting a friend, Misty Johnston, they'll come together to protect their children, leveraging all the powers they possess.

The month that was… January 2026 There’s a prevailing view that January drags its heels, but I’ve not felt that this year – it’s been a quieter month than most, and cold wet weather aside, I’ve enjoyed having some downtime. That said, my OH and I were gifted a murder mystery dinner for Christmas and we had an entertaining evening trying to suss out whodunnit. It was a lot of fun, and we won!
