"Night has a habit of mixing that which in the day appears simple and ordinary to make it confusing and occasionally frightening." 2018: two women tragically die in a car accident in Oxfordshire, England. 1918: a murder takes place in a fenland village in Cambridgeshire, England. The two events are connected but which event influences the other? The dramatic debut novel by well known children's author, Peter Crussell, is a compelling story of two families divided by time yet united by death.
