Details

Rocky, Nick, Willa and Jamie. A normal loving, anxious, messy, unpredictable, relatable, family.

Rocky has her own her way of processing disasters- 1. This could happen to us. 2. This couldn't happen to us. And then there's a secret third column- 'This could happen to us unless I am very careful/ superstitious/ grateful...'

So what happens when 'this could happen to us' turns into 'it really might be me'?

When a former classmate of Jamie's dies in a seemingly random accident, Rocky becomes obsessed. She's also developed a niggling medical condition that won't go away. Even so, she is still living her best life as the irreverent, funny, unpredictably beating heart of her family. Her father is his unique, outspoken adorable self; her daughter Willa is prone to bouts of existential angst whilst berating the fact that her mother has zero filter; husband Nick is steady, logical, and sometimes infuriating.

But if accidents can happen - and they do - is it really safe to love anyone?

Laugh out loud funny and deeply emotional, WRECK follows Rocky and her family through one rollercoaster year as they share the unpredictable, beautiful messiness of life.
