About This Book
On a windy spring day in the Chilterns, the calm, organized life of
science writer Joe Rose is shattered when he witnesses a tragic
accident: a hot-air balloon with a boy trapped in its basket is being
tossed by the wind, and in the attempt to save the child, a man is
killed. A stranger named Jed Parry joins Rose in helping to bring the
balloon to safety. But unknown to Rose, something passes between Parry
and himself on that day--something that gives birth to an obsession in
Parry so powerful that it will test the limits of Rose's beloved
rationalism, threaten the love of his wife, Clarissa, and drive him to
the brink of murder and madness. Brilliant and compassionate, this is a
novel of love, faith, and suspense, and of how life can change in an
instant.
