Two people trying to break up. One last family party. And no way out of it...

* * * * *

Things Stella and George have had blazing rows about:

- Misquoting Jurassic Park.

- Leaving a Coke can on the side of the bath.

- Fitting car seats for their hypothetical kids.

In other news, they're getting divorced.

But first, Stella's mum is throwing a murder mystery party and - with her dad losing his job, her mum's recent diagnosis, and some very odd behaviour from her sister - now is not the time to tell everyone.

All Stella and George have to do is make it through the day without their break-up being discovered - though it will soon turn out that having secrets runs in the family...
