Summary

The islands are home to an eclectic mix of ex-pats, escaping a troubled former life. For Captain Jolly, refugee from an acrimonious divorce, the good life looks set to come to an abrupt end - the Do Over, his 38-foot sailing Catamaran, lies scuttled amongst mangroves, threatened like the island itself by a violent tropical storm. Can this tropical idyll and its inhabitants survive the trial that lies ahead?  Captain Jolly’s Do Over is an irreverent Rum-Diaries style romp with some interesting insights into the human condition.
Available since: 03/05/2017.

    Witty, thought-provoking and distinctive, cuts to the heart of life choices, mental health and motherhoodFor fans of Emma Gannon, Dolly Alderton and Emma Jane Unsworth 
    Kate is not in a meaningful relationship, but dreams of being a parent, and pouring all her love into the tiny bundle of happiness that will her love unconditionally in return. Except without any partner on the horizon before her ovaries retire, Kate decides to take matters into her own hands and have one anyway. 
    No one thinks this is a good idea; not her best friend, or her boss at the bookshop where she works ― not even June, one of her elderly customers. Because what they can see, and what Kate can’t, is that it isn’t a baby that she needs at all ― it’s something else entirely…What readers are saying: 
    ‘I really enjoyed this book…a beautiful story that a lot of people could relate to’ Zoe 
    ‘Definitely one that will speak to you personally… really good story and truly makes you feel like you're not the only one who's adrift in life’ Chelsea 
    ‘A very touching look at grief and mental health struggles that I thoroughly appreciated’ H Paige 
    ‘You’ll find yourself wanting to hug Kate and her a good shake in equal measures as she barrels from one disaster to the next…A journey of self discovery and realising that all we truly want is to be happy’ Vicki 
    In this humorous fiction, Kate's journey of self-discovery is filled with top-notch wit and a unique perspective on family and friendship. Her quest for happiness, despite the looming shadow of divorce and the societal norms of marriage, is a testament to her resilience.

Huddle is recommended to take an “unrest-cure” by a friend, he little realizes that the other passenger in the railway compartment, the prank-loving Clovis, will take this as a personal challenge.
