It’s been 192 days, seven hours and fifteen minutes since her last drink. Now Astrid is trying to turn her life around.
Having reluctantly moved back in with her mother, in a quiet seaside town away from the temptations and painful memories of her life before, Astrid is focusing on her recovery. She’s going to meetings. Confessing her misdeeds. Making amends to those she’s wronged.
But someone knows exactly what Astrid is running from. And they won’t stop until she learns that some mistakes can’t be corrected.
Some mistakes, you have to pay for .
Flinstead is fictional – well you wouldn’t really want to meet these people at anywhere and certainly not at an AA meeting. People go there to get support and help at their most vulnerable time. So can you trust those who listen to your most secret thoughts? If this novel isn’t a warning to start drinking heavily or curb your drinking so you don’t end up in a support group, what is?
Flinstead could be any small town in England, or anywhere to be honest but it’s the people where you live, the people you talk to and where those secrets lead to that’s the real setting here. A rocky and deliciously unreliable journey anyone?
The rumour is that the author lives in Frinton on sea in Essex so we’ve placed that on the map.
