On
the cusp of turning fifty, Adam Sharp likes his life. He’s happy with
his partner Claire, he excels in music trivia at quiz night at the local
pub, he looks after his mother, and he does the occasional consulting
job in IT.But he can never quite shake off his nostalgia for
what might have been: his blazing affair more than twenty years ago with
an intelligent and strong-willed actress named Angelina Brown who
taught him for the first time what it means to find—and then lose—love.
How different might his life have been if he hadn’t let her walk away?And
then, out of nowhere, from the other side of the world, Angelina gets
in touch. What does she want? Does Adam dare to live dangerously?
