But does Janice have the power to unlock her own?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe can't recall what started her collection. Maybe it was in a fragment of conversation overheard as she cleaned a sink? Before long (as she dusted a sitting room or defrosted a fridge) she noticed people were telling her their stories. Perhaps they had always done so, but now it is different, now the stories are reaching out to her and she gathers them to her ...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCleaner Janice knows that it is in people's stories that you really get to know them. From recently widowed Fiona and her son Adam to opera-singing Geordie, the quiet bus driver Euan, and the pretentious Mrs. \"YeahYeahYeah\" and her fox terrier, Decius, Janice has a unique insight into the community around her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Janice starts cleaning for Mrs. B--a shrewd and prickly woman in her nineties--she finally meets someone who wants to hear her story.
