With six failures so far, and six more properties to see, Beth, her irascible husband, Jack, and their two fat dogs continue their hunt for a country domaine in France.

As tensions rise, Beth’s anxieties switch from house-hunting failures to fears that Jack is finally going to lose it altogether and come to blows with “yet another incompetent” estate agent. In spite of this, and a dog who insists on trying to die, they battle on exhausted, but determined to realise their dream. Will it end in tears?

This is the hilarious second installment of the Haslam’s French adventures.
