Caveat Emptor, 'Buyer Beware': a principle we should apply to anything we seek to buy or possess. Hugh Burroughs puts his life up for sale on eBay - starting bid £100,000 - following the discovery of his wife's affair with a person unknown. He is offering a one year lease on his Kensington & Chelsea apartment, a three month trial in his job as a buyer at a local art gallery, and six networking introductions within his well-connected social circle. His life is bought by Jory Kernow, a Cornish trawler man who is similarly disillusioned with life. Both men are seeking to escape their circumstances but under-estimate the cost of severing links with the people and places that define them. What follows the sale introduces a disquiet into their lives which neither feels equipped to cope with.
