In the spring of 1998, two friends fly to Gran Canaria with no plan, very little money, and very little idea of what they are doing. What begins as a boozy, sun-drenched holiday of cheap lager, dubious curry decisions, karaoke, jeep safaris and cultural misunderstandings slowly reveals itself to be something else entirely.

Hidden beneath the hangovers and misadventures is a deeply personal quest: the search for an absent father, last seen decades earlier and now discovered running a fortune-telling computer on a Spanish plaza.

Part travelogue, part confessional, and part surreal comedy, Roistering with Intent blends youthful exuberance with moments of unexpected tenderness — exploring identity, chance encounters, family, and the strange ways the past has of catching up with us.

Told as a serialised audiobook-style narrative, this is a true story of friendship, recklessness, and one life-changing conversation, set against the sunburnt backdrop of 90s package tourism.
