Week 24 Reviews: Waiting for the Flood, Chasing the Light


Twelve years ago, Edwin Tully came to Oxford and fell in love with a boy named Marius. He was brilliant, an artist. It was going to be forever. Ten years later, it ended.

Now Edwin lives alone in the house they used to share. He tends to damaged books and faded memories, trying to build a future from the fragments of the past. Then the weather turns, and the river spills into Edwin's quiet world, bringing with it Adam Dacre from the Environment Agency. An unlikely knight, this stranger with roughened hands and worn wellingtons offers Edwin the hope of something he thought he would never have again.

As the two men grow closer in their struggle against the rising waters, Edwin learns he can't protect himself from everything—and sometimes he doesn't need to try. Because love doesn't only leave scars; oftentimes, it heals them too.

Chasing the Light is a companion novella that will be available to read in Waiting for the Flood (2024 edition). It follows Edwin's ex, Marius, as he rediscovers love and the complicated joy of being truly alive.
