Quelle drole d'idee ! Rassembler pour des vacances a La Pointe-aux-Mouettes l'ex-Mrs Strange - Mrs Audrey depuis son divorce - et Kay, la nouvelle tenante du titre, sous le pretexte d'en faire des amies... c'est de l'inconscience, pour ne pas dire plus.

D'ailleurs, si ces tigresses ne se sont pas encore echarpees, c'est qu'elles se retiennent. Pour l'instant. Les vertus calmantes de l'air marin, sans doute... Mais les choses n'en resteront pas la.
