Joe and Tess have spent seven years married, but not in bliss. Each fiercely proud and unwilling to be first to give in, their love becomes a cancerous war of worsening proportions as they deny each other affection and refuse to communicate. Miserable and hurt by Tess´s drunken actions at a party, Joe leaves and drives away - drives anywhere, as long as it´s far from her. When he finds himself literally on a cliff edge, his pride leads to a strange chain of events that will have terrible consequences for them both.

Craven, Miles
Miles Craven is my penname, an amalgam of the name I was born with (Michael Craven) and the name that replaced it when my mother remarried (Michael Miles). A Yorkshireman living with my family in North Wales, I graduated in Medieval and Modern History at Birmingham University in 1978, where I also completed my PhD in 1982.
