#FlashForwardFriday is a part of #Domevember where we look ahead to the brilliant books due out in the near future. Today’s choice is the fabulous looking ‘The Last Crossing’ by Brian Gilloway
This will be available from the Dome Press website from April 2020 so set yourself a reminder,now!
I will be bugging people closer to the time,about this title, but this is a friendly reminder that all the books I have flagged and highlighted are not only available via the Dome Press website, I have listed them on a Goodreads shelf here
About the book…
Tony, Hugh and Karen thought they’d seen the last of each other thirty years ago.
Half a lifetime has passed and memories have been buried. But when they are asked to reunite – to lay ghosts to rest for the good of the future – they all have their own reasons to agree.
As they take the ferry from Northern Ireland to Scotland the past is brought in to terrible focus – some things are impossible to leave behind.
In ‘The Last Crossing’ memory is unreliable, truth shifts and slips and the lingering legacy of the Troubles threatens the present once again.
That sounds like an incredible and immersive novel to look forward to reading in 2020. It’s on my list for sure! (Just lets keep it between us, ok, as my husband is getting slightly panicked about the book to non-book ratio of our house….)
PLUS the added bonus is finding that there is back catalogue to explore of Brian’s work! Oh joy! (again, just between us, ok?)
