Paperback 168 pages 233mm x 155mm.
When brothers Nicky and Ethan escape the degraded, dangerous world of the
future, they are seeking only sanctuary and peace. All they want is to leave
their past behind them, but Ethan’s unique talent, the instrument of their
escape, means the past can never be forgotten — Nicky and Ethan have been
followed…
Schoolteacher Olivia lives a lonely but safe life in the home of her late
foster parents, a home she is about to lose. After an unsettling encounter with
her new neighbours and a series of puzzling break-ins, Olivia is inadvertently
drawn into the brothers’ lives, and her own past is brought into sharp relief by
her discovery of a cache of her foster mother’s diaries, which raise questions
about her birth parents. The deeper she delves into the diaries, the closer she
draws to unravelling an old mystery that will taint her relationship with Nicky
and Ethan and challenge her perception of reality.
As Olivia and the brothers are about to discover, sometimes paths intersect
more than once.
