'Full of cutting insights but not at all short on heart-warming humour.' -Independent

Colleen and Andrew haven't had sex in eleven weeks and three days [not that anyone's counting]. Their marriage is in crisis, they're drinking too much and both have secrets they're afraid to share.

A teetotal week in a remote cottage could solve all their problems. But with the promised beach nowhere in sight, a broken-down car and a sinister landlord, they may not find it so easy to rekindle their romance. In this dark and funny novel, tensions build and tempers fray.
