Description
"Brilliant... hilarious." The Skinny. Trixie is back! After a few months in cliquey, midge-ridden Inverfaughie, she'll do anything to escape to Glasgow. But when a Hollywood movie begins filming, she fills her B&B with stunt men - until hungry cows, polo resorts and billionaire property developers kick off a rebellion, leaving Trixie unpaid. Her teenage son is rebelling, too: he's going to become an eco-energy genius and live in a commune. Meanwhile, an ancient document is unearthed that might change the future of Faughie. A referendum is called. Sick of the boring political arguments, Trixie just wants to get out of Dodge - until she's offered an enticing bribe. Will she betray the cause, take the money and run, or is another Faughie possible?
