Book Overview

It's the late eighties and 24-year-old Kerry has been drifting aimlessly through life in Edinburgh. Rarely having plans of any kind she gets drunk and things happen: sex drugs parties relationships and when she's really pushed work.

Setting off on a hastily arranged visit to Australia Kerry packs only three items of clothing a pair of flip-flops two hundred pounds and her young persons' work visa. Soon broke hungry and homeless she joins ART a likeable but mismatched band of travellers who sell dodgy oil paintings door-to-door in the suburbs. Young beautiful and free they drink wildly and live for the moment.

Embarking on a riotous road trip together their lives become deeply entangled and the drinking spirals out of control. Eventually Kerry is forced to admit that her journey to Australia isn't quite what it seems ...
