Close of Play, Paperback / softback Book

Close of Play Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Brian Clarke has an ordered life, a life of village cricket, solid principles, and careful interaction with those around him.

He is resolutely fending off advancing middle-age with a straight bat, determined to defend his wicket against life's occasional fast balls.

Then he meets Elizabeth - a gentle, caring, genuinely selfless soul who is a glowing bloom amongst the ordered hedgerows of his existence.

As Elizabeth demands Brian's interest...and breathes hope into his heart...he must reassess his self-defined role as the lone batsmen and fight to find the courage to fall in love. Or risk losing her forever. Close of Play is a thoughtful, funny, beautifully honest story of love and manners.

It's a tale of missed opportunities and a chance at redemption - and the fear of opening our hearts to another when we think we've forgotten how to love.
