An over-powering Greek dad, various children and a death. I did have to do a double take as I thought I had read this beforehand - but there is a similar set up in Rachel Joyce's new book The Homemade God. But not to worry as this tale has it's own cast of characters; siblings, half siblings, step mothers, mothers, husbands and of course, the Dad.

There is humour and desperation as the family balances their needs with the apparent last wishes of their father and the grief stricken step mother. A wild caper ensues - a jolly good read.

This a great story of a blended family and that contains coming together as one to take matters in their own hand in the most witty sharply funny way...loved the setting, the dialogue and premise great read all round
