It's Raining Men
Forty-something Iris seems to have everything – a wonderful husband, two beautiful daughters and a successful dental practice. But after sixteen years of marriage, the passion has disappeared between her and her workaholic husband. So Iris decides to take matters into her own hands and signs up to a dating app so that she can take a lover…

Vignal relates Iris’ journey of rediscovery and freedom with plenty of humour and without any judgement.
