description: It's been a blissful ten years since George put down his bass, left the Artful Badgers and vowed never to play in public again. But when tragedy strikes his best friend he'll do anything to help. Unfortunately that means going back out on the road, and this time he's taking his daughter with him.Alice has realised she wants more from her best friend than she is prepared to give and the band they have spent so long building up may not survive the fallout. Luckily her dad has the perfect plan to take her mind off of it.It might feel more like a support group than a band, but if George can't keep it under control then it could destroy his best friend's life, his daughter's happiness and what's left of his own sanity.Join George, Alice, Tim and a whole host of familiar faces as George is dragged back into a world to which he hoped he'd never have to return.'Holwill has a wonderful sense of humour and isn't afraid to pour it over his novels like a decadent sauce' - Em 'Radzy' Jackson'I love the heart in this novel and this was an easy five stars to give' - Jessica Belmont'An absolute joy!
