Mark, Alison and their son Charlie are on the perfect summer getaway at a five-star Greek hotel – until Charlie’s best mate from university, Gemma, joins the fun. Amid vomit, tequila and bloodshed, an ancient vase from the hotel mysteriously disappears and Alison and Gemma engage in a vicious feud to prove their innocence, discredit one another and win Charlie’s trust. This darkly comic tale of social mobility and betrayal asks: How far would you go to win over the person you love? Especially when they represent your only escape.
