Colm Cantwell's life is in a sorry state. His wife won't sleep with him, despite all his efforts at persuasion. His stepdaughter hates him with a quite terrifying passion. His once grand literary ambitions flounder in the shallows of bitty journalism and tatty gossip columns. Into his life totters Sally, balancing precariously, a character close to the edge, and Colm spies an opportunity for change.
But Colm is a prisoner of Dublin, a place where talk is an addiction and word of mouth is still a weapon. Accustomed to being the spider spinning webs of gossip, Colm eventually finds himself the fly.
