It's hard enough being an adult, let alone a functional one. Leigh-Anne feels like neither. A white woman from Cape Town's Southern Suburbs, she's gradually unravelling as wife, mother, sister, daughter and office manager. The story opens in winter with Leigh-Anne lost at midnight on Rondebosch Common. Three losses are preying on her. First, there's her relationship with her ageing dad, who seems to be hiding a secret. Secondly, Leigh-Anne's desire for Samuel, her thin and distracted psychiatrist husband, has run dry, and she can't help thinking about her colleague Omar at NGO Phambili - Omar with the hairy wrists and warm jacket. The third area of loss is through a perceived betrayal of her activist best friend, Gwendal, whose increasing battiness alienates her teenage daughter. Leigh-Anne's children, Tom and Jamie, pipe up from the sidelines. They are oblivious as their mother grows fatter and drunker, her clandestine bingeing a backdrop to their lives. She seeks refuge by ordering her world into threes and multiples of threes, which are presented as lists - quirky, funny and often poignant. Her lists corral her worries and failures but can't fix them. Looming large is the loss of a national dream, evident in the poverty all around them, and personified in Mr Hoody, who lives on the pavement outside Leigh-Anne's local Spar. Leigh-Anne and her siblings discover the sordid secret their parents have been hiding: her father had an affair with the teenage sister of a nurse who worked at his abortion clinic on the Cape Flats during the apartheid years. The girl became pregnant, and Leigh-Anne has a sister, whom she tracks down. Eventually, Leigh-Anne's husband moves out and she starts rebuilding her life - with the possibility that Omar (whose attempted reconciliation with his ex-wife has failed) might be a part of it.

When the last of members of a secretive Druid cult are forced to abandon their hidden sanctuary, they send the youngest of their remaining priests in search of Annwr, their chief priestess’s sister, who was abducted by a Saxon war band fifteen years ago. With only a rudimentary grasp of English and the ambiguous guidance of an oracle’s prophecy, Caelym manages to find Annwr living in a hut on the grounds of a Christian convent. Annwr has spent her years of captivity caring for the timid Aleswina, an orphaned Saxon princess who was consigned to the cloistered convent by her cousin, King Gilberth, after he assumed her father’s throne. Just as Caelym and Annwr are about leave together, Aleswina learns that Gilberth, a tyrant known for his cruelty and vicious temper, means to take her out of the convent and marry her. Terrified, she flees with the two Druids—beginning a heart-pounding adventure that unfolds in ways none of them could have anticipated.
