Produktbeschreibung

If you had just one moment to flee, would you take it?

After years of being boxed in an abusive relationship with a man who claims to love her, a young academic has one fleeting moment to run. Set in Rouen, France, the story evokes the Gothic undercurrent of the ancient town as we watch events unfold over a few days.

This short story was first published in Litro Magazine in November 2011.
