Aphrodite Rogue By Eleanor McMahon

About Aphrodite Rogue By Eleanor McMahon

14+ recommendation. Contains strong language and themes of an adult nature

Edinburgh, sometime very soon. 4 flatmates try to make do as hearts are broken, climate change disrupts hope of a faraway escape and their dingy flat (literally) falls apart. But someone (or something) has wormed its way into each of their lives. Someone is messing everything up. And only one of them has noticed.

Aphrodite Rogue – a comedy about love, uncertain futures, and the importance of trying again, no matter how pointless it may seem.
