Description

A young Anglo-Saxon woman is travelling across an empty East Anglian landscape.

She's dressed as a man, for safety. But when her only companion is murdered, she knows she faces discovery, and almost certainly much worse. In the Napoleonic period, a little boy has to walk several miles to market, on his own, for the first time. In the present day, a mixed-race teenage girl - along with her best friend Rob - faces the difficulties of extreme shyness and mutism. There is another presence too. Professor Molly Barnes - an archaeologist in her eighties - unwittingly presides over the narratives, looking back at her own coming-of-age, recalling her earliest memories of friendship, and questioning her own profession and its capacity to discover true versions of history. Time After Time is a coming-of-age novel, written from an adult perspective.

It is set in the East Anglian countryside, and links three different stories to the archaeological discovery of a Roman mosaic floor and a mysterious Anglo-Saxon bracelet.
