Whenever by Sarah Connell

Christine wakes up one morning to discover that her husband, Ray, did not come home from his evening out with a friend. She waits to hear from him but has no message or news. The friend she thought he had arranged to see has left a phone message to say that he is sorry they did not meet. Ray's work believe he has gone away on sabbatical and the police are sympathetic but unhelpful. Ray is gone and there is no reason to think he might come back again soon. From being settled and content, Christine's life lies in tatters. Until she encounters a young man tending a cat injured by a speeding car. Against her instincts, Christine is drawn to the young man and strange, fragile association grows between them, one which gradually alters Christine's life.
Sarah Connell lives in a northern city, a fictional version of which is both the setting and the subject of her novels. She is interested in change, how it happens, how we experience it and the impact of one person’s change on another’s. During her career, firstly in social work and later in education, finishing as director of an educational charity for lifelong learning, she continued to write, fitting it in around her family and a busy life. She wrote a novel in two hour blocks on Sunday mornings when her senior job left her little creative thinking time. She had no confidence in what she was doing, but she never stopped writing. Retirement has given her the time and space to be mentored and to focus on her novels.
