A charming, uplifting debut novelâfull of humor and depthâthat has taken readers around the world by surprise. Everyone has a story to tell. But does Janice have the power to unlock her own? She canât recall what started her collection. Maybe it was in a fragment of conversation overheard as she cleaned a sink? Before long (as she dusted a sitting room or defrosted a fridge) she noticed people were telling her their stories. Perhaps they had always done so, but now it is different, now the stories are reaching out to her and she gathers them to her ... Cleaner Janice knows that it is in peopleâs stories that you really get to know them. From recently widowed Fiona and her son Adam to opera-singing Geordie, the quiet bus driver Euan, and the pretentious Mrs. âYeahYeahYeahâ and her fox terrier, Decius, Janice has a unique insight into the community around her. When Janice starts cleaning for Mrs. Bâa shrewd and prickly woman in her ninetiesâshe finally meets someone who wants to hear her story. But Janice is clear: she is the keeper of stories, she doesnât have a story to tell. At least, not one she can share. Mrs. B is no fool and knows there is more to Janice than meets the eye. What is she hiding? After all, doesnât everyone have a story to tell?
