When Dan Lived in the Woods

Company Director Dan Donovan is on the edge, plagued by work pressures, a claustrophobic relationship and a nagging feeling there must be more to life. One day, at breaking point, he walks away without looking back to live in the woods behind his house. Life in the woods brings new battles; extreme weather, poisonous plants and the bitter cold, but at least Dan is free to live a life that he is in charge of - a life free from responsibility, pressures and technology, where he can enjoy the ebb and flow of each day and realise what is really important in life: and it isn't how much time he spends in the office. Meanwhile, Dan's girlfriend and his secretary begin a frantic search to find him - and themselves - along the way. Will they trace him? And, if they do - will he come home? A book for anyone who has ever wanted to run away.
