When The Mist Clears
Funny, poignant, life affirming. When the Mist Clears follows the chaotic life of Dan Armitage, a war correspondent who suffers a panic attack when he is reminded of a dark secret from his time in Iraq as he is receiving his Journalist of the Year award.
It prompts him to re-evaluate his career, volunteering to help cancer sufferers at the scariest time in their lives.
In the process he meets four strangers and they quickly realise they share a quirky wit, a common purpose, a soaring sense of optimism and an unexpected love for life and each other.
They make a pact to meet up in a year’s time, if they are still alive.
Meanwhile, Dan witnesses a savage beating which drags him into a world of drugs and crime which has consequences for them all.
