Publisher's Synopsis
An ordinary bank, in an ordinary town. There was no way of knowing what was about to happen. Afterwards, the first thing Martha thinks about is a drink. She reads her reasons why she shouldn't. Tobias was a boy when the bombs dropped in Dresden. Now alone, the memories he's been running from are insistent visitors. Roman, a 14-year-old Polish immigrant, is on the run. From the police. From Jimmy and his gang. Mama said everything would be better in Ireland. She was wrong. Cillian, a detective, finds himself back in Dublin, investigating a robbery. His girlfriend plans their future as she awaits his return. Each is running. To a place where the past cannot be undone and the future cannot be known. A place called now.
