Is Harry Still on the Boat?

by Colin Butts (Author)

Synopsis

Ibiza's glorious summer season is beginning, but holiday company Young, Free & Single - made famous by Colin Butts' first novel, IS HARRY ON THE BOAT? - is under threat. Sleazy Tyrone Lucas, disgraced former rep with YF&S, runs their rival, Club Wicked, and would dearly love to bring them down. When dance music megaclub The Monastery decides to expand into travel by acquiring one or other company - spelling disaster for the loser - the battle lines are drawn. YF&S need the experience of veteran rep Greg, but his only interests are the opening party at Space, popping pills and winning the infamous Golden Dick. Unless Greg straightens out, the future of YF&S could be down to how the new reps perform, but with Sloaney Arabella besotted with a Club Wicked rep, Vaz desperate to become a DJ and Hughie infatuated with any girl over a size 18, the initial signs are not good, especially when Club Wicked reveal their new resort manager, an old adversary who gives head to get ahead ...
