Overview

NOW A MAJOR AWARD-WINNING SERIES STREAMING ON NETFLIX. STARRING RACHEL GRIFFITHS AND MARTIN HENDERSON. When her husband left her with two kids to support, Antonia decided to start a new career as a pimp. Upon discovering that sex work is decriminalised in New Zealand, Antonia Murphy decides to build her own business: an ethical escort agency. It seems like a good idea, but she isn’t sure how it’s done, so she connects with the online sex worker community. These smart, sassy women teach her more than she could have dreamed of – the importance of pineapple juice, how to remove chilli oil from, ahem, sensitive places, and what ‘Greek’ means (hint: there are no togas). Clueless but hopeful, Antonia launches The Bach: a healthy, safe place where women can earn great money and provide compassionate, shame-free pleasure for clients. At least, that’s the idea ... A poignant and darkly comedic memoir from a mother who opened an ethical escort agency in small town New Zealand – and dared to make a difference.
