Getting It Right

Gavin - a shy and sensitive hairdresser in the West End - is, at thirty-one, still a virgin. He's a classic late developer, and he's worried that it's getting too late to develop at all.

Then one night Gavin finds himself at a glamorous penthouse party. Completely out of his comfort zone, he stumbles upon the straight-talking Joan and the waifish Minerva, and suddenly everything begins to change. Over the next fortnight, Gavin might start, at last, to 'get it right'.
