About this ebook

David’s once care-free marriage starts disintegrating after he and Jenny, his wife, have a baby with Down’s syndrome. She stops communicating with him on any level and devotes all her time to the baby. But then David manages to persuade her to make friends with another lady, Jane, who also has a baby with Down’s. However, he soon starts an affair with Jane and, after Jenny finds out about this, she dies, having seemingly committed suicide. This makes David feel extremely guilty but he gets back together with Jane, who starts her own business, and they finally get married. But David has medical problems of his own.....

This family drama, set in modern-day Britain, is told mainly from David’s perspective but is interspersed with comments from the two women in his life describing how they feel about the events as they unfold.

Author

R.J Sloane

After leaving university in London, Richard Sloane roamed the world as a peripatetic English teacher for about twenty years, teaching an enormous variety of students, with just a couple of years back in England to do further studying. Then he returned to live in Cambridge and continued teaching for roughly another twenty years until he was forced to retire for medical reasons. After this he became a full-time author and has so far published six novels for adults and a number of books for children and young people. These can all be viewed on his website at: richardsloanebooks.com and are all available for purchase on Amazon.
