This book is one of if not my favourite book I’ve read this year. I was worried that the book would be sad but, actually although the story is based around a tragic accident and the impact of this, One Split Second is so much more. The accident itself is just such a small part of it. The emotions of those affected, their relationships and how they develop after the accident are so deeply and carefully woven into the story. Every character felt like a key piece and I wanted to get to know them all. There were a couple of points where I really wondered which way the story could go, it was nice to be kept guessing. I will definitely be reading more by this author and wholeheartedly recommend this.
