Out on the Edge

"Got to get away.  Don’t think, just move.  Every step hurts.  Everything hurts. 

Crossing the road, a horn screams.  Too much noise in my head – too much screaming.

Don’t know where I’m going, not till I recognise the road.  I should; I’ve walked up here often enough. 

I can’t stop here but there’s nowhere else to go.  Nothing else to go on.  What do you do when you can’t keep going? You stop."

Alison has her life together. There's not much that can faze her.

Garry's blown it in a big way - but then, it was never going to turn out any other way, was it? Not with a dad whose alcohol-fuelled rages have been putting bruises on Garry's face, and his mum's, for years. And sooner or later you have to say 'enough'. Don't you?

When Garry and Alison's lives collide, that could turn out just as badly. Or worse.

What the reviews say:

'This is an excellent piece of work from an emerging writer - well-written, intelligent, in character and perfectly pitched for the intended reader. Highly recommended!' (Reading Time)
