A BRAND NEW comedy from the best-selling authors of the ‘Festive & Furious’ books.
Kelly Ecclestone has always done what’s expected of her - tidy house, tidy life, tidy marriage to celebrity ‘shock chef’ Lee Ecclestone. But on the eve of her thirty-fourth birthday, when Lee gifts her a puppy she didn’t want and a paddle-boarding lesson she’ll never use, something inside Kelly finally snaps.
So when an old schoolfriend has a crisis, Kelly seizes her chance. She grabs the dog, packs a bag, and drives to the location of her childhood den: a mighty oak tree in the middle of Clopton Wood. There, Kelly swaps dinner parties for compost toilets, discovers what it truly means to live off-grid, and somehow ends up leading a campaign to stop the new railway from destroying the local woods.
But running away is only the beginning. Between furious outbursts, awkward reunions, and a battle with slippery local MP, Cameron Clasp, Kelly stumbles into the one thing she never thought she’d find: a life that might actually be her own.
Can Kelly outwit her enemies, tune out her husband, and prove that even lost in the woods, she might be able to find herself?
