One Split Second
A moving and ultimately uplifting novel that challenges us to reflect on our own beliefs about guilt, responsibility and forgiveness.
One Split Second ... the moment that changed their lives forever.
When a car carrying five friends home from a party crashes into a wall, the consequences are devastating—not just for the young people directly involved, but also for their families and the wider community.
No one escapes unscathed, but some are more deeply scarred than others. Those affected are left to question who was to blame for the accident, and what price they will pay.
This moving story of an accident and its aftermath explores our understanding of love and loyalty, grief and forgiveness.
