4 A.m. Until 4 P.m.

This book engages mind and body, with its narrative and beautiful, visual imagery of the landscape, which is located in an English, un-commercialised, seaside town. The two central character's Anna and Jo meet at dawn on a coastal cliff path, after a sonic boom has woken them both from sleep. This 'bang' ricochets and has a ripple effect, not only on these two women, but also the other main characters that witness their 'meeting' and become drawn into their worlds. The imaginative mystery, becomes a multi-layered riddle, wherein the lives of the characters are each given room to lap in and out of one another, creating windows that lead into dreams and reality as if everything is in some way connected. The repercussions of the 'bang' in these peoples lives is significant and fundamentally changes their own journey, as each individual experiences the turning tide within themselves. This is not a single story, but several or more stories each being spun concurrently.
