Bob wants to avoid financial ruin at any cost. Tina wants to

Dick wants to find a new way of life at any cost. But who will pay the highest
cost?
Excerpt:
Bob didn’t
have a clue how everything had got into such a muddle so quickly. He’d tried
blaming everybody but himself for the financial mess threatening to destroy
him: the banks for allowing him to borrow so much, the credit card companies
for encouraging more debts, Tina for seeing him as a cash outlet and Tina’s
bloody horses. Now it was all so terribly out of control and getting
progressively worse.
Recently he’d
shifted blame to a person he’d never met but Tina praised constantly. Duncan.
Duncan the wonderful vet who made all Tina’s dreams possible. Without Duncan
her horses would not move the way they did. Without Duncan she could never have
dreamed of achieving all she had. Bob had developed a deep hatred for this
demon called Duncan. He was sick to death of hearing about Duncan, seeing bills
from Duncan and watching his money disappearing out of their dwindling account
heading in the direction of wonderful, perfect Duncan. Without Duncan, Bob
could have had a good night’s sleep and an easy relationship with his bank
manager.
Bob didn’t
even know if any of his cards would cover the cost of the meal. He had borrowed
cash from Dick, just in case. And Dick was yet another worry playing on his
mind. Really it was all getting too much to bear. He had to say something now.
