Seven people fall into a sinkhole. Who will emerge from the horrors they now face?
Jerome Barrett, looking forward to some time spelunking with his mates? June Hicks, worrying about getting her son to school on time? Gertrude Williams, wondering why her husband hasn't told her about his visit to the doctor? Martin Collier, who wants to 'man up' his brother?
As fate throws them together, the life-threatening situation makes their everyday concerns appear trivial.
Author - Poet - Versifier Born in Harlsden on the outskirts of London in 1943, Peter Barns spent his formative years living beside Regent's Park. Educated at a Secondary Modern school, he left with just one qualification in 'O' Level Art. Passing through a variety of occupations after leaving school, he finally ended up working in the construction industry as an electrician. After taking his City & Guilds, he became an electrical engineer and spent the next twenty years working on building sites. Somewhere in there he got married and divorced - a couple of times - and had two children. He moved to the Highlands of Scotland in the late 1980's along with his partner. With the move came a new occupation - counselling people with alcohol and drug problems - which he did for six years before managing a charitable company recycling redundant computers back into the community. Now retired he spends his time writing and refurbishing houses.
