Second Honeymoon: an absorbing and authentic novel from one of Britain’s most popular authors

When the last of your children has flown the nest, will there be time for a second honeymoon?

Ben is, at last, leaving home. At twenty-two, he’s the youngest of the family. His mother, Edie, an actress, is distraught. His father, Russell, a theatrical agent, is rather hoping to get his wife back. His brother, Matthew, is struggling in a relationship in which he achieves and earns less than his girlfriend. And his sister, Rosa, is wrestling with debt and the end of a turbulent love affair.

Meet the Boyd family and the empty nest, twenty-first-century style.
