Description

When Plan A is no longer an option…

Things were going just fine in the career department – that was until the recession hit – then all bets were off. Jenn Postman, a 27-year-old lifestyle writer for a B-list women's magazine had never thought that such mundane things as recessions or inflation or job loss could hurt her until the day her world comes crashing down when the magazine folds. Her father, on the phone from Cork Harbour, the small, seaside town where she grew up, asks astutely, "What's Plan B?"

And Jenn finds herself back in her childhood home, a boomerang kid, working at the only job she can get– in her father's now-booming gourmet grocery business. Her life changes the day someone finds a tarantula in the banana shipment.

While the customers and staff are all busy trying to rid the store of the offending creature, Jenn finds a cryptic note between the bags of premium Costa Rican coffee she's unpacking. It's from "Juan" who says he needs help – Jenn becomes obsessed with this note, and after being aided and abetted by her old friend Faith, a stifled, small-town obstetrician's wife living vicariously through Jenn, decides to travel to Costa Rica to find Juan.

When your life hits a major road block, sometimes your Plan B is more than a detour – it just might be your real life.
