Elizabeth Coleman’s Losing the Plot reissued by Allen & Unwin

Elizabeth Coleman’s novel Losing the Plot has been reissued this month by Allen & Unwin with a new cover and fresh positioning in the contemporary fiction list. Described by Rachael Johns as “a beautiful novel about chasing your dreams and finding love in the most unexpected places” and by Who magazine as “a warm and very funny read” , the novel follows single mum Vanessa Rooney as she pursues her dream of writing a romance novel - only to find herself in a legal battle when her work is plagiarised by a celebrity author.

Coleman is a screenwriter, playwright and novelist, best known for her hit play Secret Bridesmaids’ Business, which she adapted into an award-winning ABC television series. She is also the author of the Edwina ‘Ted’ Bristol Murder Mystery Series, A Routine Infidelity and A Dance with Murder , both published by Pantera Press.
