The Brazilian by Rosie Millard

Perfect for fans of Rachel Johnson and Claire Sandy, The Brazilianoffers a much-needed dose of celeb scandal for fans of Love Islandand other reality TV shows.

Following a sensational scandal at one of London's most desired postcodes, Jane and Patrick decide to escape the gossip with a family holiday to Ibiza, their eight-year-old son George in tow.

Also on the island that week is a TV reality show involving an eccentric artist, a horny It Girl, a Brazilian footballer and a famous magician.

As hapless celebrities are picked off one by one, Jane is desperate to be on the programme, leaving childcare in the not so capable hands of a teenager.
