Grey Matters

A story of healing, defiance, and a quiet power that refuses to fade
Odile, a French woman living in Edinburgh, may be getting older, but she refuses to fade away or conform to what is expected of her. She intends to live her precious life to the full and very much on her terms.

Odile, a French woman living in Edinburgh, may be getting older, but she refuses to fade away or conform to what is expected of her. Like her friends, old and new, Odile is a testament that mature women acquire their strength through the struggles of life.

After all that experience, sacrifice, rage even, she is determined to remain relevant. She intends to live her precious life to the full and very much on her terms.

Odile has worked hard at leaving her past behind. With time, she has forged her own path and raised her daughter, Rowan, singlehandedly, against the odds. Yet, the past has a habit of resurfacing, no matter what. Besides, what she calls her past belongs to her daughter too, and it is Rowan who will put Odile to the test.

Is Odile really the woman she thinks she is? Can she find her way of making things right and discover her own way of ageing well? Her quest begins.
