Following the sudden death of his father, Felix returns to his middle England home and his difficult and demanding mother, where he soon realises that his search for unity must include his own chaotic home life which includes, among others, his mother's rather questionable boyfriend, George, George's daughter (with whom Felix has a bit of 'history' and family friend, the timid, mousy Mercy - not to mention the bees.
