John's second book of stories, some not so short this time, delves again into the consequences of some ordinary, and some extraordinary, events involving otherwise ordinary people in mid-life. Some face ghosts of their past and contend with their own character traits and flaws. Some fall in, or out of, love; some form unexpected friendships; and some deal with a variety of aspects of death. Other stories are idiosyncrasies of family and neighbour relationships, with unexpected tensions and outcomes.
