"A biting laugh-out-loud satire" (Louise Welsh), and For Faughie's Sake is the long-awaited sequel. Trisha, a lonely unsentimental boozer, unexpectedly inherits a home in the Highlands. She leaves her estranged husband, her insolent teenage son and her boring job. Having pictured a rural idyll, she finds rain, sheep, and kamikaze midges. And more rain. In the second book, things get political when a regional independence campaign is triggered. Omnibus edition is a digital exclusive.
