Five people in a sleepy English coastal town. One year that changes everything.

They seem to have it all. They’re in good health and are financially secure. They live in a pleasant and comfortable town. But as their lives intertwine, cracks emerge and restlessness grows.

“R J Gould brings his characters to life as he introduces a group of seemingly normal people with seemingly normal lives, yet it soon becomes clear that they are anything but...”
