Secondhand paperback very good condition. Published by Quercus, 2017. In this humorous adult parody of Enid Blyton's Famous Five, George, Dick, Anne, Julian, and Timmy the dog embark on a New Year's resolution to give up alcohol for a month after a wild party. Their challenge is tested by an upcoming wedding where Julian serves as best man and temptations abound, while Timmy slyly tries to sabotage their sobriety. The story explores their struggles with hangovers, replacements for drinking, and personal demons in a lighthearted, modern twist on the classic adventures.
