Katy Waters, aged 23, lives in a rundown caravan site in the English countryside of Lincolnshire. A supremely dull, grey, flat, devoid-of-happiness place. She's been desperate to save up enough to have a better life - but sometimes, it's just too hard.

Battling with her addictions, she gets caught up in a local drug ring - and with a boyfriend who may be more than he seems. The drug pushers aren't professionals, but that's what makes them so scary. You can have a civilised conversation with professionals. What do you do when someone can just snap at any time? 

But still, they're the only thing keeping her afloat.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
