Description

Alan Sherwood, a cautious and solitary London solicitor, thought he could avoid unhappiness. However, his life took an unexpected turn when he became obsessed with his glamorous cousin Sarah. Their brief affair left him desolate, but he found solace in Angela, a homely acquaintance of Sarah's. As they drifted into marriage, Alan struggled to shake off the memories of their time together. Despite his efforts to move on, Alan couldn't help but feel drawn back to Sarah. He arranged a final meeting with her, hoping to recapture the wordless passion of their past encounters. This act would change his life forever, leading him down a path from which he might not return. This novel explores themes of love, obsession, and the complexities of human relationships. With its nuanced characters and subtle plot twists, it is a thought-provoking read that will keep you engaged until the very end.
