Stuck with no income and a family and household to maintain, she decides to set up a business based on two things – the only marketable skill she has, which is maintaining an expensive home, and the snobbery of the upper crust in Adelaide.

The comedy arises from Andrea’s attempts to maintain the secrecy of her role as the formidable but fictitious Adelaide Banks, managing director of the rapidly expanding Quality Care, without her family and friends finding out. And in the process of course she discovers her own repressed alter ego.

It’s all told with nice plot complexity, an ear for dialogue, and come-uppances aplenty, with a jigsaw neatness that plonks it squarely in the romantic comedy genre.
