Description

She was his favourite creation. Now she's his living nightmare. Gerry Anderson is unwell - bed-bound - with only his nurse and PA for company. But what's really troubling him are the phone calls. Phone calls from a woman claiming to be the 'real' Aubrey. But how can that be, when Aubrey's just a character Gerry made up in a novel years ago? As the calls keep coming, and a reckoning draws closer, can Gerry see what's real from what's not, and make peace with the sins of his past?
