Racing Demon And Other Ways Of Cheating Love And Death

Gennie’s comfortable life is over. Gone are her days of white wine and shopping. When she moves back to Cornwall to work for a children’s charity, all she’s looking for is peace and a chance to recover from the untimely death of her drunk of a husband. Too young to be widowed, rootless and broke, she needs to find a new life for herself and her daughter. But her plans are rocked by Jack, a troubled ex-soldier trailing echoes of the past and alcohol issues of his own. Drawn to him against her better judgement and by their shared concern for an Afghan refugee, she wants to trust him. But will he trust her? Does she want to get involved with him? Or is it just the fear of being alone? Racing Demon and other ways of cheating love and death is a modern and touching story about the fragility of love, the power of hope and the true impact of loss.
