A story about the choices we make - and the consequences we don't see coming.
At fifteen, a single word during a job interview sets Nick on a path through working-class Britain - a path shaped by quiet decisions, hard lessons, and the people he meets along the way.
As life moves on, responsibility grows. Marriage, family, and financial pressure force Nick into difficult choices, including a move abroad that exposes him to a harsher and more unpredictable world.
Back home, the strain continues. In trying to provide for those he loves, Nick crosses a line that brings serious consequences - and forces him to confront the true cost of his decisions.
But life offers second chances.
Through unexpected opportunities, Nick begins to rebuild - eventually helping others avoid the mistakes he made. Years later, a simple phrase brings clarity to a lifetime of choices, and the realisation that wisdom often comes only through experience.
A heartfelt and thought-provoking novel about life, consequence, and redemption.
"A thought-provoking read - I finished it in one sitting."
