Publisher's Synopsis
Martha wants a drink. There are six reasons why she shouldn't have one; she wrote them down over a year ago. Two of the reasons are the same. A name. Of someone she didn't think she'd ever see again... Roman, a fourteen-year-old Polish immigrant, is on the run. He understands now what it means to be caught between a rock and a hard place... Tobias, old and alone, lies in a hospital bed in Dublin where the memories of Dresden are insistent visitors... And for Cillian, a police detective, the past is like a current, pulling him back, reminding him of all he's lost. Each is running from the moments that brought them to a place where the past cannot be undone and the future cannot be known - a place called now.
