One winter morning on an ordinary day in contemporary Dublin, a middle-class woman wakes up in her suburban home.
Her husband is next to her in bed, her children sleeping nearby.
Without thinking much about it, she walks out the front door and never comes back.
She travels first by car, then train, then ferry. Along the way, she finds herself in service stations and shopping centres, hotel bars and hairdressers - and in the beds of strange men.
Finally, 48 hours later, alone in a cottage in Wales, the woman faces up to what she has been ignoring, inside herself, her family, modern society: signs of breakdown.
