Four women. One pottery class. And a second chance at happiness.

Becky is a single mum who prides herself on her independence. She knows from experience that men are trouble. She has lived pretty much all her life on the Inventor's Housing Estate, and while she knows her neighbours to say hello to, that's about as far as it goes. But it's also about to change.

Becky has set up a new pottery class in the dilapidated community centre that used to be the beating heart of the estate, and it feels like a fresh start. Soon, the assorted neighbours come together to try out a new skill, under the watchful eye of their charismatic teacher, Sasha.

Louise has a loving husband and gorgeous kids. She knows she ought to feel more grateful, but something is missing. Jameela works hard and always tries her best, so why won't life give her the one thing she wants? And Sheila, whose nest is finally empty, dreams of escaping to the sun, but her husband seems so distracted.

As the soft, unremarkable lumps of clay are hesitantly but lovingly moulded into delicate vases and majestic pots, so too are the lives of the four women. Concealed passions and heartaches are uncovered, relationships shattered and formed, and the possibility for transformation is revealed.
