The Innocent and the Beautiful by Alan Atkinson
A life can change in a second. 'The Innocent and the Beautiful' is a deeply moving true story of love and tragedy, of injustice and the courage to endure. In 1981 Alan Atkinson took his perfect family on holiday to Florida. As night fell in the Everglades another driver, drink in hand, reversed directly in front of the family's rental car... and in an instant Alan lost his beautiful wife and three wonderful children. Beginning in the early 1960s, 'The Innocent and the Beautiful' tells of Alan and Adrienne's romance, of their family, and of how after their deaths Alan struggled with the American legal system to find justice, ultimately rebuilding his life and finding love again, but never quite peace.
Alan Atkinson is a former RAF and commercial pilot. His career took him from flying military transport planes to the most glamorous job in civil aviation, flying the Concorde. Had tragedy not intervened, Alan would likely never have become a writer, but he is a gifted author, and 'The Innocent and the Beautiful' is his powerful testament to the eternal need for love and justice. Today Alan lives with his partner Liz in West Sussex.
