When the residents of Cornwall wake up to find that they have broken away from the mainland, and are drifting in a south-westerly direction, they realise life will never be the same again. Faced with an unprecedented turn of events Whitehall sends Roger Stiles, their Civil Contingencies Secretariat, to deal with the situation. Roger arrives in Cornwall and is met by a rich array of characters. There are those from the formerly sleepy riverside village of Dumgarth who suddenly find themselves becoming a coastal resort overnight. There is the surfing community of Pentwen who fight to save their waves and town from undesirable commercial ventures. And there is the fishing village of Porthissick who deal with their new-found independence in their own, rather unconventional, way. This is a funny and heart-warming story of how people come together in uncertain times, turning adversity into opportunity.
