1983 – the summer of ABBA, first love and shared secrets for four teenage friends high on life and music.
Over three decades on, when Maggie decides to reform the old crowd for an ABBA reunion concern in Stockholm, much has changed.
Mother and wife Maggie is coping – alone – with life-shattering news. Daniel, once a major pop star, now a recluse, is reluctantly back in the limelight, and wants nothing more than to escape. Once-wild Dee is a force to be reckoned with in the boardroom, but her marriage tells a different story. And for Charlie, personal happiness has come at a heart-breaking price.
As each is about to discover, old friends know you better than anyone. And sometimes, you have to reconnect with who you once were to find out who you can be, if you’re just willing to take a chance…

Praise for Brian Finnegan
'With his zeitgeist debut novel, Brian Finnegan - well-known media commentator and editor of GCN, Ireland's gay magazine - brings us a warm, funny, touching, sexy, romantic, thoroughly enjoyable, brilliantly-plotted page-turner, whose faith in the redemptive power of our love offers a ray of sunshine for our gloomy times.'
'An amusing read about coping with new beginnings'
'The beauty of The Forced Redundancy Film Club is that it can - like all classic movies - be enjoyed, not specifically by just women or just men, but by anyone who loves a good story'
A refreshing change of pace for Irish books aimed at women...with enough romance and intrigue to keep you reading whether you're on the beach or the bus
