Angela Fytton - wonderwife, supermother, bedroom vamp and business partner - has been unceremoniously dumped. Like many a good wife before her she has been swapped by her husband for a younger model. Now, divorced but determined, she rediscovers the iron in her soul and decides to fight. She moves to the country leaving her entirely selfish teenage children with their father and his sweet new bride, and she waits. One day, she knows, her husband will return. Meanwhile she yields herself up to the notion that country life is pure and good and that country people are next to angels - and finds this is very far from the truth . . .
