MEET THE ADULTS...

Claire and Matt are divorced but decide what´s best for their daughter Scarlett is to have a ´normal´ family Christmas with them all together.

Claire brings her new boyfriend Patrick, a seemingly eligible Iron-Man-in-Waiting.
Matt brings the new love of his life Alex, funny, smart, and extremely patient.
Scarlett, their daughter, brings her imaginary friend Posey. He´s a rabbit.

Together the five (or six?) of them grit their teeth over Organized Fun activities, drinking a little too much after bed-time, oversharing classified secrets about their pasts and, before they know it, their holiday is a powder keg that ends - where this story starts - with a tearful, frightened, call to the police...

But what happened? They said they´d all be adults about this...

´Such a breath of fresh air! Witty, intensely human and (dare I say it) relatable ... The perfect comedy of errors´ Katie Khan

´The Adults is my top read of 2018 so far. Absolutely hilarious ... This one will stay with me for a long time´ Cathy Bramley

´Packed with sharp wit, engaging characters and off-beat humour, this is a fresh and feisty thrill-ride of a novel´ Heat

´I took this book on holiday and couldn´t put it down! I´ve never read anything quite like it´ The Unmumsy Mum

´Gripped me from the start. Reminiscent of Liane Moriarty´s Big Little Lies - a sure-fire winner´

´Brilliantly funny - will have you wincing in recognition´ Good Housekeeping

´I have a feeling Caroline Hulse might be a genius, this book is so brilliant. t´s funny, clever and original - I loved every minute of reading it. Also, Posey should get a spin-off TV show´ Lucy Vine, author of Hot Mess

´Funny, poignant, real - a truly original book that made me laugh, cry and cringe in equal measure. I loved it´ Charlotte Duckworth

´Razor-sharp comedy - barbed and brilliant. The characters are totally convincing ... Sparky, heart-felt and fantastically fun, this is a fabulous debut´ Sunday Mirror
