Fred Cox was a tough, self-made man whose life had revolved around his successful transport company. After the devastating loss of his beloved wife and his health now failing, Fred faces an unsettling reality: he must hand the reins of his cherished business over to his daughter, Mercedes, and husband Lawrence.
As Fred navigates the challenges of adjusting to life in a care home, he encounters an eclectic group of residents. Together, they form a camaraderie that helps Fred grapple with his newfound circumstances.
Will Katya, the Polish carer, find her happy ever after amidst the chaos? Can Mercedes prove to her father that she is more than capable of running his beloved business?
Eau de Toiletteis a heart warming narrative that delicately captures the complexities of life within a care home, illustrating the friendships that blossom in unexpected places and the profound lessons learnt in the twilight years.
In 2021, Kevan A Gee wrote his novel Eau de Toilette after gaining inspiration from a local care home where his father resided in later years. Following his death, his novel has been published by his family posthumously, ensuring that his legacy lives on.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book because I could relate to the workings and daily life of the people in the home and even relate to the different types of characters. Kevan must have studied all of these things on his regular visits. The characters are fictitious but he probably based them on people he encountered within the home.There is a sadness about people ending up in care homes but there are also funny moments that the book portrays.A mixture of laughter and tears well done to the Author Kevan Gee and to his family who had this published in Kevan’s memory.
