About this audiobook

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Us Three written and read by Ruth Jones, co-creator of Gavin & Stacey and author of the smash-hit, number one bestselling debut, Never Greener.

Friends forever is a difficult promise to keep...

Meet Lana, Judith and Catrin. Best friends since primary school when they swore an oath on a Curly Wurly wrapper that they would always be there for each other, come what may.

After the trip of a lifetime, the three girls are closer than ever. But an unexpected turn of events shakes the foundation of their friendship to its core, leaving their future in doubt - there's simply too much to forgive, let alone forget. An innocent childhood promise they once made now seems impossible to keep....

Packed with all the heart and empathy that made Ruth's name as a screenwriter and now author, Us Three is a funny, moving and uplifting novel about life's complications, the power of friendship and how it defines us all. Prepare to meet characters you'll feel you've known all your life - prepare to meet Us Three.


Praise for Ruth Jones:

'Ruth Jones is excellent on human nature and why we make the mistakes we do. I felt for every character. Unputdownable.'
Jojo Moyes, bestselling author of ME BEFORE YOU

'I love books about gnarly, messy relationships and this one kept me gripped from the beginning. A great read.'
Jane Fallon, bestselling author of TELL ME A SECRET

'Thought-provoking, compelling and ultimately redemptive'
Sunday Express
