'I never think of Laura as my step-sister, but that's what she is. Laura-sister'. This is the funny and touching story of Laura and Miffy. Twenty years ago they were the best of friends, inseparable as only teenage girls can be. Until Miffy's Jewish father ran off with Laura's Catholic mother and both of their families, as well as Laura's intense first relationship with Miffy's brother, imploded. Twenty years on they're about to meet again.
