Chains. A novel in progress.

By reckless

My one and only novel!

It is the story of a group of people thrown together by circumstance. Their pasts come slowly to light, events unfold and the story charts how they cope with the dramatic turns their lives take.

I knew that what I recognized as Louise's restless intelligence was at work, weighing up possibilities, considering and discounting, but I left it alone.

Chapter 1

By reckless on Sun, 14 Jan 2007

A dark haired woman was sitting in a corner by the wall and next to her was an empty table, so I sat down, glancing at her in passing. She lifted her head and gave a bright smile, which I returned. Nice eyes I thought, probably a nice woman. We had exchanged that brief moment of mutual recognition, two human beings who for one small pause in eternity had noticed each other's existence and had thought it to be alright.
