Warning! This book triggers laughing out loud, turning to spinal shivers as the gripping drama of Alma and Will's stories unfolds. A fascinating and emotional true-life story packaged in a fun filled holiday diary with detective elements. Discover how an uneasy truce between a mother and son is threatened when a visiting friend accidentally unlocks secrets that have poisoned their lives. Discover too how the visitor, Sue, draws on her own life experiences to help troubled friends come to terms with their harrowing past, on a paradoxically hilarious yet traumatic joint holiday.
