Good reading for this time of year...set between Halloween and November 5th...
Erosion -
'During her first storm swept night in a run-down chalet park on the North Yorkshire coast, a terrified Lizzie Juniper witnesses a building's collapse into the sea. Unable to save its inhabitants, she watches in horror as an old couple and their teetering home crash into pounding waves hundreds of feet below.
The next day, the few remaining residents are given seven days to vacate their chalets yet it seems strange they are in no hurry to leave...
Lizzie soon finds out there are worse things than an eroding coastline and that everyone has a choice about their future and when you have nothing left to lose, that choice can be surprisingly liberating.
November 5th approaches with a run of unusually warm days. A firework display is poised to ignite, a smuggler's tunnel is reopened and Lizzie discovers no-one is as they at first seem.
Erosion is about more than a subsiding cliff face; it is about the disappearance of a way of life and the discovery that people living on the edge can make extraordinary choices.'
