Estate agent Frankie Blue is known on his home turf - White City, Shepherd's Bush - as 'Frank theFib'. He's a liar - but one who always tries to tell the truth. He has been friends with Diamond Tony, a hairdresser, Colin, a computer nerd, and Nodge, a cabbie, since schooldays. Now they are thirty, and trying to live the same life as they did then - drinking, girls, coke, and football. But Frankie is bored. He's decided to carry out the great 'betrayal' - he's going to get married. From the moment he tells his mates, the whole patchwork of their friendships begins to collapse - revealing the sad, shocking but often hilarious truths that lie underneath.
