While wildfires rage, the couple trace the course of the Colorado River, the aquatic artery on which the Southwest depends for survival.

Together they cruise past gaping canyons, blinking motels and lonely stretches of wilderness, trying to understand this uncanny landscape where Georgia O’Keeffe built her home and avant-garde artists dig mysterious installations in the sand. When Eloise begins to suspect she might be pregnant, she hopes to turn Lewis’s attention from the past to the future, but their relationship continues to fracture as they head towards a destination unknown.

Ingrid Dahl is a twenty-nine-year-old librarian living in the cosy mountain town of Ridgetop.

The thing is, neither of them has ever been with anyone else. Shouldn’t they sow their oats before settling down? They make the unorthodox decision to separate for a month to date other people, assuming that at the end of it, they’ll reunite and start planning their nuptials.

For Constance ‘Connie’ Costa, life is just beginning. She dreams of leaving behind her dull, dreary life in ’70s East London, shaking off her deeply embarrassing Greek-Cypriot community of interfering aunties and pretend ‘cousins’, and running away with her best mate Vas (fellow misfit; NHS specs; soul of a poet). She is determined to take her rightful place alongside her hero, David Bowie, onstage at Wembley Stadium. Only one thing stands in her way: her father, The Fat Murderer. No longer content with being an absolute imbecile and general abomination of nature, he has dialled up his campaign to ruin Connie’s life ever since the death of her mother. If she ever wants to claim the destiny that is rightfully hers, Connie has only one option left: to kill him.
