    About this ebook

    His wife is pregnant. His son is gay. His dog is an alcoholic, and his mistress is a lunatic whom happens to be married to the local Member of Parliament. Welcome to a week in the life of Markus Stanfield; a man caught in the curse of being blessed with a western middle-class life. Sex, marriage, alcohol, politics, adultery and ghosts; not necessarily in that order.
