‘Making Nice’ takes place in the murky world of London PR firms, the back rooms of Westminster and on the campaign trail in America and Africa. We follow the hapless Dickie Pentecost, lately the diplomatic correspondent for a London financial newspaper, together with his wife Jane and daughters Flo, an aspiring ballet dancer, and Lucy, a teenager of fourteen. The family find themselves bound up in an ever more alarming series of unfortunate events revolving around the shady character of Ethel (full name Ethelbert), founder of the dubious public relations agency Making Nice.
