Spider is everything Fat Charlie isn’t: charming, confident, carefree. And when Spider gets a message from his dear long-lost brother, he drops his glittering life in Los Angeles to pay Fat Charlie a visit in the UK. But Spider’s in for a surprise.

It's time for Fat Charlie and his long-lost brother Spider to mourn the death of their father, Anansi, the god of stories. And in true dearly departed deity fashion, that means an epic night of wine, women and song-a night which will push Fat Charlie to the brink...

As Fat  Charlie nurses an epic hangover, and deals with the mystery woman who  shared his bed after the night of mournful reverie, Spider heads to the  Grahame Coats Agency to fill in for his brother. There, Spider gets into  the kind of trouble only a trickster scion could muster - trouble that  poor Fat Charlie will have to deal with.

Fat Charlie is forced to deal with the fallout of Spider's day pretending to be him - the chaos he caused at Fat Charlie's job at the Grahame Coats Agency as well as the kiss-filled complications with Spider and Rosie. Daisy (the woman Fat Charlie woke up with after the evening of wine, women, and song) is more than meets the eye. Plus: A classic tale of young Anansi brewing his particular brand of mischief.
