This is Max de Pauley’s story – the journey from shy young man, appearing in a working men’s club, to famed and revered female impersonator with a career spanning decades.
It’s also Martha Sunday’s story – their two lives so entwined that they knew each other’s deepest secrets.
Max’s funeral cortège comes to an abrupt halt when a body is discovered already in the grave. The nightmare doesn’t end there, however, as it transpires that the victim was known to both Max and Martha.
Instead of hosting a funeral breakfast, Martha finds herself at home, accompanied only by a small group of friends, some of whom have their own axe to grind.
The arrival of two police officers, digging ever more deeply into the circumstances surrounding the death, opens up secrets and lies that have been hidden for many years.
Shifting from the distant past to the present day, a shocking truth emerges, laying bare a history of deception, violence and betrayal.”
