Blessed Assurance

Literary
Four friends. Two marriages. One underlying struggle. The conflict between principles and behaviour. And the backdrop of Yorkshire moors, Sussex coast and the North Downs. For Tom and Pete, faith is central to their lives but they have very different takes on what that means. Anne and Liza have different priorities. And their relationships are not always straightforward. So when Tom reaches a crossroads, who does he talk to? The son of local gentry and formerly head of his own investment company, Jonny Nower is also at a crossroads. Can the two men help each other? And can the four friends weather the storms of doubt and betrayal and emerge unscathed?
