In this book we meet the Gogarty's. Grandmother Millie likes shoplifting and another foible of hers is reckless driving.
The local shopkeeper finally has had enough of her stealing and sends for the police.
Stepson Kevin is a house husband, looking after his children while desperately trying to find more work as a journalist, while his more successfully employed wife, is away from home for periods of time.
Granddaughter Aileen is one of twin girls and the one going astray, so Kevin arranges for her to go to boarding school to try and improve her behaviour.
Kevin seems a bit lecherous and has fantasies about one of the teachers at Aileen's new school.
We also meet Sylvia, a young American who Kevin employs as a companion for his step mother, much to Millie's disgust, to try and avoid her having to go to Court for her latest foray into shoplifting.
This book is full of humour and there are a lot of laugh out loud moments and a thoroughly enjoyable as we join in with the chaos surrounding the Gogarty's.
