From London to Los Angeles, Berlin and Tokyo, Nothing Good Happens After 2 a.m. is a story of friendship, ambition, passion - and something more. London, 2005 Behind the unmarked door of Love and Death, a tiny speakeasy in East London, Robbie Saunders and El Tippett are cocktail-making stars on the rise. Locked in a volatile dance of rivalry and chemistry, they can't decide how they feel about each other. And, as the as the city transforms itself, and the bar's legend grows, it all begins to unravel. Yet something indefinable keeps drawing Robbie and El back together. Over the years that follow, one unexpected, ill-advised, and utterly glorious late night after another, can they put aside professional betrayals to build something brand new?

'As seductive and smoky as the cult venues it depicts, I love Niamh's dry wit and observational skill, and the epic sweep of El and Robbie's connection across the years feels so cinematic' Mhairi McFarlane 'A dream of a book - a beautiful and unusual love story, but also an exploration of what truly matters in life' Jane Casey `A beautifully written and astutely observed dance through the decades of two people figuring out if what they want is each other' Sarra Manning
'An epic love story across decades, I fell in love with El and Robbie from the off, addicted to their world . Utterly absorbing, a book to rival Taylor Jenkins Reid' Sam Holland
