Produktbeschreibung

Even in the darkest days can be found courage, love and the answers to our dreams.

The coronavirus virus pandemic has shut down the world, tearing lives asunder. Huddled indoors, fearful, we watch and wonder when, if ever, our lives will ever be the same again. Against this unheralded background, three individuals face their own, unique challenges to survive.

Kevin, a young man, struggling to find his place in the world, blighted by a loveless upbringing and bullying at school, now lives in London, a city gripped by dread. An introvert and loner at heart, he must form bonds with those around him to plot a way through lockdown, fulfilling a role which is vital to the future of the nation.

Jess, a lonely, childless woman, clings to a young refugee who has become so much more than a pupil to her, as she longs for love. Then she meets the dashing Todd, who simultaneously both offers a tantalising hope and threatens to separate her from the only person who has given meaning to her life. The dilemma she faces would send her halfway round the world, away from all she has ever known. How can she possibly choose?

Daniel dedicates his life as a doctor to helping all those, good and bad, who pass through his surgery. The only person he seems unable to help is himself; he lives a solitary life, cocooned against the pain of loves lost. As the sheer scale of the pandemic becomes horrifyingly clear, he faces a choice with potentially devastating consequences.

Like so many of us, these lives have been shaped by their pasts; they could never have foreseen how the momentous events of 2020 will present them with challenges and opportunities that will define their futures. Calling on all their wisdom, strength and imagination, they seek to rise above the chaos enveloping them, not only for their own survival but for that of those around them.
