Max is a bookseller. Since his relationship with Jazz ended, he’s struggling to find purpose in life. That all changes when Cath walks into his shop and pins up an advert asking for a piano teacher for her daughter, Alice.

Max takes down the details and gets in touch immediately. Within a short space of time he manages to secure the position as Alice’s piano teacher and establishes that Cath is a single mother.

What could be better?

Well, he might be able to play the piano for a start.
