Holly canÕt pack fast enough. SheÕs leaving South Wales to spend a year in France. At last, a chance to see the world outside her one-hearse town, Pontycynon (alias Ponty Sign-On). Even if itÕs the last resort - PontyÕs dreaded twin town, Mauvoisins.
Three days after setting foot on French soil, HollyÕs on the run from her au pair job. But she wonÕt crawl back home with her tail between her leggings. Not when thereÕs a room above the Bad CafŽ. And a new career, teaching the locals to speak English tidy, mun.
HollyÕs trip has its hazards - a run-in with the MayorÕs family, tabloid controversy and a toe-curling moment of merde on the dancefloor. But when she stumbles upon a twisted secret, is she heading down the (wrong side of the) road to ruin...?
