- Keeping Abreast is due to be re-released in early 2016[5]
Stan Cutler is good-looking, unemployed, and fed up. He craves money and sex, and his acrobatic pigeons are almost the only things giving him pride and joy. Evie Cutler is similarly bored; her years of motherhood feel redundant, her chip shop job tedious, and her marriage stagnant.
When Stan is unexpectedly double-crossed, and Evie takes an unexpected long weekend in Amsterdam, their lives take a radical turn. Stan seeks revenge through plotting the perfect crime, while Evie embraces adventure and hope, each finding excitement, yet neither confiding in the other.
Set against the backdrop of recession and shuttling between Middlesbrough and Amsterdam, Stan and Evie's secret selves relentlessly pursue an intriguing climax.
