The Last Hope of Girls synopsis
Newly installed as a live in caretaker of an Oxford Street mansion
block which is being transformed into show homes, Martha Brazil
can scarcely believe her luck. After years of stuffy bedsits and
seedy suburban flatshares, the future seems electric with the
promise of renovation and repair. Cruising her local department
store by day and thrilling to the sounds of revelry that float
through her window at night, it strikes her that surely an independent
young person with flair and a surplus of will power ought to be
able to shine in such a setting.
But Martha's splendid isolation is tainted by agonising ghosts
from the past which compete for her attention. And when out of
the blue a copy of her father's latest novel falls into her lap
she comes to the conclusion that it's time to take herself and
her eccentric, fragmented family in hand.
