"The missing boy is 10-year-old Alfie Risby, and to be perfectly honest with you, he's a little shit."
Florence Grimes is a thirty-one-year-old party girl who always takes the easy way out. Single, broke and unfulfilled after the humiliating end to her girl band career, she has only one reason to get out of bed each day: her ten-year-old son Dylan. But then Alfie Risby, her son's bully and the heir to a vast frozen food empire, mysteriously vanishes during a class trip, and Dylan becomes the prime suspect. Florence, for once, is faced with a task she can't quit: She's got to find Alfie and clear her son's name, or risk losing Dylan forever.
The only problem? Florence has no useful skills, let alone investigative ones, and all the other school moms hate her. Oh, and Florence has a reason to suspect Dylan might not be as innocent as she'd like to believe…
Hilarious and twisted, propulsive and furious, All the Other Mothers Hate Me is the must-read book of 2025.
"Sarah Harman has created a potent mix of mystery, laugh out loud humor, and one of the most indelibly matchless protagonists ever. I rooted for Florence, this hilarious, unreliable, party girl who will go to any lengths to protect her son. Put this at the top of your to be read list!" —Liv Constantine, New York Times bestselling author of The Next Mrs. Parrish
"All the Other Mothers Hate Me is a twisty mystery, a shrewd send up of London's upper crust, and a hilarious, heartfelt story of a woman pushed to extremes to protect her only son. Like its protagonist Florence Grimes, this debut is truly one of a kind." —Caitlin Mullen, author of Please See Us
"All the Other Mothers Hate Me is a darkly funny, irresistibly suspenseful mystery, featuring a protagonist I loved spending time with. And this novel has voice for days." —Clémence Michallon, internationally bestselling author of The Quiet Tenant
