The Beach Hut Next Door
“And very intimate, as the sky itself wrapped itself round her, deep Quinky blue. The motorway was empty, and Chloe felt as if she was the last person in the world, driving over the horizon. The stars spread themselves out in front of her, and she felt as if she should be using them to guide her, rather than her prosaic sat nav, which told her she had another thirty-four miles to go.
She couldn’t get there fast enough. She couldn’t wait to leave it all behind her: today, her wretched job, he...r flat. The past two years of stress and sleeplessness and toil which had led to bitter disappointment. And injustice.
The anger boiled up inside her and she tried some deep yoga breathing to try and dispel it, but she knew it wouldn’t work.

How could something like that be allowed to happen, in the twenty-first century?MoreLess
