Reader's Diary #2030- Lucy Robinson: The Plunge

Lucy Robinson's "The Plunge" has a great, wry sense of humour that is needed for a story such as this with what could otherwise be too hefty themes; aging gracefully and fear of a parent's mental decline.

There was one moment which felt a little contrived (it involves someone hitchhiking though it turns out the ride was pre-arranged with her new boyfriend) but otherwise I enjoyed the story.
