Michael Adams thought he had the best of two worlds. He had a wife and family he loved and an escape into another life when things got tough. In his other life he shares a place with three other guys and lives a carefree life as a 'thirty-something teenager'. But can Michael really keep up the lies and pretence to prevent his two worlds from meeting? O'Farrell narrates this story with such wit and accuracy that you can't help but relate to the characters.
