He keeps all the plates spinning in an Around the World Yacht Race, but his marriage and sense of purpose are on the brink.On the other side of the world, free- spirited, middle aged, Suzannah Fraser, spends her days running a posh boutique, and her nights in a dingy Sydney apartment, surfing the internet and dreaming of escaping her humdrum existence.The lives of these two unlikely side-kicks collide, when they start a fanciful, steamy, online relationship. Meanwhile, in Panama, an ex-beauty queen and one of the skippers in the yacht race, that has been plagued by accidents, has gone missing. Sir Richard Watson, sailing legend, race chairman and Jack's father-in-law, sets him the task of finding her and rescuing the race from ruin.Lancaster's Folly hurtles us from Panama to New York, London, Sydney and back again via air, land and sea, as sex, lies and video tapes of long forgotten misdemeanors lie at the heart of this unconventional romantic adventure.
