The one that got away

Tweet

I have just finished reading this book and I must say that I really enjoyed it. The story is about a young couple Ben and Clara who meet while they are at university in 2000. They get on fine most of the time but they do have their differences. Ben is a keen football fan who likes to go and watch his local team when they play at home and then go for a drink with his mates after the match. Clara is a bit possessive and she makes it clear that she does not like him doing this. But they are rubbing along quite nicely despite this until something bad happens. This story is told in two parts , in the early 2000`s and then it skips to 2022 when Clara is married to a man named Thom. The marriage is not a happy one because Clara keeps thinking about Ben and what might have been. Then they hear on the news that there has been an explosion at the football ground that Ben goes to. Clara is worried that Ben has been hurt or killed and she goes looking for him.
