Description

Colleen and Andrew haven't had sex in eleven weeks and three days [not that anyone's counting].

Their marriage is in crisis, they're drinking too much and both have secrets they're afraid to share. A teetotal week in a remote cottage could solve all their problems. But with the promised beach nowhere in sight, a broken-down car and a sinister landlord, they may not find it so easy to rekindle their romance.

In this dark and funny novel, tensions build and tempers fray.

Advance Praise

'‘Dan Brotzel is a master story-teller and observer of people and relationships. What is utterly brilliant is that he takes those things and brings them out into the open with humour, suspense and unexpected twists. I could not put this book down.’ -Christy Lefteri, author of Songbirds and The Beekeeper of Aleppo

‘Sharp-eyed but warm-hearted, Dan Brotzel’s portrait of a struggling marriage will make you wince with recognition. Happily it will also make you smile. With characters that are all-too-relatable, The Wolf in the Woods skewers the lies we tell ourselves in order to keep going. I loved it.’ -Stephen May, author of We Don’t Die of Love
