Two-Hundred Steps Home Volume Four

Claire finds herself travelling through East Anglia with her six-year-old niece in tow. For someone who has no experience with children - and no desire to learn - travelling with the highly-strung Sky is a new and not entirely pleasant experience. Claire has never had to take care of another human being before: how will she cope?Claire's life revolves around Starbucks, stilettos and her career as an Advertising Account Director for AJC. That is until her boss Carl decides to send her on a mission to visit every one of the 200 YHA hostel in England and Wales as part of a marketing campaign. More used to five-star spa resorts than 'flea-infested hostels' Claire only takes the assignment to save face. It becomes clear to her the 'mission' is a ruse to make her resign.Claire has faced high-wires and heart-break, has abseiled down a waterfall and kayaked across turbulent waters, but nothing has prepared her for life with a six-year-old. Discovering that a child needs entertainment as well as food and board, Claire has to delve deep within to survive the first week of the Easter Holidays.
