A marriage on the rocks. A family in disarray. A weekend in the sun at a luxury, all-inclusive hotel. What could possibly go wrong?

Jo and Dave haven't had a holiday in years. They've had other things on their plate: failed IVF, the death of Dave's mother, doing up the bathroom.

So when Dave’s flashy brother Teddy offers to fly in from Dubai and take them – along with his gorgeous young girlfriend and their curmudgeonly father – to a beachfront resort in the Med, the couple can hardly refuse.

But while romance might be on the cards for some, Jo and Dave soon find that tensions don't disappear in paradise. In fact, they might just get worse...

Set over the course of one scorching weekend, All In is a compulsively entertaining and bittersweet novel that asks: when life gets choppy, how does love stay afloat?

Critic reviews

Intensely funny… profoundly touching… a very superior literary beach read, the sort of book that you need to finish urgently but that lives on in your head for years (India Knight)
Captures the reality of various relationships on the rocks with startling accuracy and emotional intimacy. I laughed, I cried, I couldn’t pull my eyes away (Daisy Jones)
Perfectly observed characters in the pressure cooker of an all-inclusive holiday... I loved it (Luke Kennard)
Powell excels at writing about the thousands of paper cuts that kill a relationship and does it with humour and honesty
A brilliantly relatable novel... superb (Zoe West)
I couldn’t stop reading... Claire Powell is a real talent (JENNIE GODFREY, author of The List of Suspicious Things)
I was having such fun reading that its emotional undertow caught me off guard. I had tears in my eyes at the end (REBECCA WAIT, author of I'm Sorry You Feel That Way)
Elegant, sensitive and sympathetic (JESSICA STANLEY, author of Consider Yourself Kissed)
Quietly devastating. Not a word out of place (SARAH VAUGHAN, author of Anatomy of a Scandal)
An exquisitely observed, propulsively plotted story of a family in free fall (JOE DUNTHORNE, author of Submarine)
All stars
Most relevant
Claire's powers of observation are almost supernatural and I find her books an absolute joy to read. All In is filled to the brim with quiet profundity - taking the mundanity that makes up all of our lives and holding it up to the light.

Real people, real problems; money, marriage, infertility, disappointment, grief... I'm already desperate for book three!
