The Best of Times - Penny Vincenzi

A hot summer’s day.

A crowded motorway.

A split second that changes everything

Jonathan, the charismatic surgeon returning from a liaison with his mistress, Abi. His wife thinks he’s somewhere else.

Georgia, the young actress on her way to audition for the part that could make her career; and Linda, her agent, dynamic, ambitious — but lonely after a failed marriage.

Toby, the bridegroom with a dark secret on the way to his wedding, with his best friend, Barney.

Mary, travelling to the airport to meet her first love, whom she hasn’t seen in over fifty years; William, the farmer who watches the drama unfold across the hill; and Emma, the engaging young surgeon at the nearest hospital.

One heartbeat in time, and all their lives are transformed. Worlds are torn apart, mysteries are created, love affairs ended and ignited. But is it for the worst, or could it be for the best?
