Can you bond with someone who’s on borrowed time? Victor’s mum, Jayne, is stuck between life and death in a London hospital. They’ve never been close, but even now Victor’s hoping that may change. He’s a sometime actor and pantomime dame but she’s mistaking him for his favoured elder brother William, a Tory MP. Visiting from the Isle of Wight, Victor sofa-surfs at his daughter’s flat, accidentally begins an affair with an attractive doctor and battles his dyslexia to record Jayne’s memoirs. As the days of her illness blur into weeks, Victor pieces together family secrets that throw new light on his own bittersweet story. At the heart of it all is a feature article, Sons of Great Men, that Jayne wrote in the 1960s to gain a foothold in the male-dominated newsroom of a Fleet Street paper.
