After the Eclipse

Adam Saunders' life had touched bottom. Within the space of a month, his father died, his girlfriend left him and he turned 40.

After a strange solar eclipse, his circumstances shift. Someone else is living in his flat in Shepherd's Bush. He and his former girlfriend are still together. All the things he had thought lost appear once more within his grasp. The only thing stopping him is himself. But it seems he only has a matter of weeks to put his life in order. The uncanny mauve planet that had caused the eclipse has just been discovered and is heading towards earth.

After the Eclipse is a novel about loss that is both thought-provoking and funny. It gives dramatic life to the haunting fantasy of what our life might have been like, if only we'd had a second chance.
