Produktbeschreibung

'A joyously wicked read that will cheer you up no end. A genuine tonic. So clever, so funny and so refreshingly different. I loved it' RUTH JONES
'Warm, witty & brilliantly realised' DAILY MAIL
'Part Fleabag, part Agatha Christie' JOSIE SILVER
Two people trying to break up.
One last family party.
And no way out of it...

* * * * *
Things Stella and George have had blazing rows about:

- Misquoting Jurassic Park.
- Leaving a Coke can on the side of the bath.
- Fitting car seats for their hypothetical kids.

In other news, they're getting divorced.

But first, Stella's mum is throwing a murder mystery party and - with her dad losing his job, her mum's recent diagnosis, and some very odd behaviour from her sister - now is not the time to tell everyone.
All Stella and George have to do is make it through the day without their break-up being discovered - though it will soon turn out that having secrets runs in the family...
