Living in a cozy, small town, tucked away in the south of England, unremarkable average guy Alfie Bowman has been heard to describe himself as a refugee from a failed life. In his own words he’s ordinary looking, starting to lose his hair, a little bit shorter than average, a little bit heavier than he should be, and a lot less fit than he really ought to be. Most definitely an unlikely hero! At the ripe old age of 50, he’s escaped an unhappy marriage and just wants to re-start his life, relax and have some fun, and maybe do some writing - if only he could find something to write about! So when he stops in the pub for a couple of pints on the way home one night, the last thing he expects to have to do is save a stunning young woman half his age from a fracas with an enormous thug with huge fists! But that’s exactly what he does do, because, as far as Alfie’s concerned, there are some things you can’t just stand by and ignore. Waking up in hospital later that night he wonders if maybe getting involved hadn’t been the best decision he’d ever made after all! But he soon learns that the beating he’d been given had nothing to do with events in the pub... So who beat him up, and why? Who is the stunning young woman and what’s she doing in town?

"Get out of my house." "What-why?" "I'm breaking up with you. So leave... before I really lose it." My jaw dropped. Break up? Was I hearing him right? This was the same boy who promised me forever. And now he was telling me to go? "You're joking... right?" I tried to sound firm, but my voice betrayed me. "Amelia." He snapped my name, then dragged a hand through his hair, exhaling sharply. "I said get out... before I drag you out myself." He still wouldn't look at me. His voice was calm-too calm. But at the very end, it slipped. Just a little. It shook.

Will the truth come out alive and better yet, will she? **extract Slowly and auscultating. I trepidatiously creeped through the woods, getting deeper to find him; it seemed the more I called the more isolated I was. The trees seemed to howl and viciously danced above me as I looked up. In my near vision, a black sheet whips past me, startling me to the side. Nothing. Again, it strikes like lightning behind me, but this time, it hits me in the back, winding me and throwing me forward. I sit up and feel my head hurt and my chest is collapsing in on itself; panic sets in my veins and makes a home like a feeling I don't think will ever leave even if I survive. If. This could be the end. This is the end, here, next to the death place of my brother - full circle - like I deserve.
