Description
Life rushes on. Do we make every second count, or want to stop time ticking by?
China. Desperate to secure its status as the world's new superpower, develops a plan that threatens the stability of the West.
A situation that should be a world away from four disconnected school friends, embarking on a re-bonding cycling holiday. It's a ride into the heart of the People's Republic but instead of strengthening their unity, suspicion grows at every turn, love grows, trust disintegrates, until their very existence is threatened.
Time Stops Ticking is a novel very much of our times, set vividly against the dramatic backdrop of a China that most tourists never experience - rural, raw and real.
A feast of high octane drama with twists a-plenty for the cycling Brits along their switchback route of friendship. Gray, author of Blinkered and Unquiet Mind, writes with a powerrful narrative, and a multi-perspective of a country and its people as a backdrop to a fascinating love-hate interaction between the story's principal characters.
