When Lisa Collins is jilted by the man she loves, she retires to bed broken-hearted and shows no signs of ever getting up again. Until, that is, best friend Scarlett threatens to bring a cold shower to her in a bucket if she doesn't shift her 'scrawny little arse' and packs her off to Rabbleford, a small village in the West Country, for a change of scenery. There, along with the wacky Lily Silverthorne (who suffers from an 'overdeveloped sensitivity gene') and the local vet (who soon develops a soft spot for Lisa), she becomes embroiled in an acrimonious conflict sparked by the purchase of the village shop by an Asian family. There is a provocative St George's Day pub quiz, a nocturnal assault on the shop by armed raiders and an explosive public debate on immigration. But what of Lisa? Will there be a super-duper happy ending with bells and bunting for her?
