Story
Harry feels downtrodden. Downtrodden by senior management, who have decided to retire him, and by his meddling, sex-obsessed father in law. But mostly by his wife, Hilda. And she tells him they must retire to Cornwall. Harry takes up a creative writing course, through which he can live out his fantasies - fantasies of murdering his wife. But Hilda reads his story and, lost on Bodmin Moor, is confronted with devil worshippers, a convicted call centre worker with a habit of cutting off fingers, and a birdwatching hitman.

Story
Getting the gang back together to revisit their annual ski trip after 10 years of recession and child-rearing seemed like a good idea to Will. But the manopause was approaching. Judah’s whipping indiscretion with a young student has hit the headlines, and an ambulance patient has threatened Al with assault. Mac has finally found a client with money, but she’s after more than just remodeling her house; and Rick is diverting his grief into ludicrously high risk activities. Will struggles to get them to the slopes, but there they find the mishaps are just beginning...

Story
Magda cleans up - and it’s more than just housework. She knows all about the call-center worker’s fake dating profiles and what the prospective MP gets up to when he slips into something more comfortable. She even knows about Claire’s secret inheritance, which is more than Claire does - and she knows how to tease out Claire’s husband’s infatuation. But can Magda turn a profit from all this knowledge? A hilarious romp through the private lives that only a cleaner really sees.

Publisher's Summary
Travis's life is perfection. He has the looks, the car, the apartment and the women. Lots of women. Debbie says the sex is revelatory, which doesn't help Sheryl. And then there's Colin. Colin's life is bleak and without hope, and his sex life is so inconsequential that it is hard to assign it a proclivity in any direction.
All Colin's dreams come true when, thinking he's working for MI6, he shadows Travis's life and goes on a journey of orgiastic debauchery. But things aren't quite as they seem as the noose tightens on Travis's perfect world.
