C. A. Hocking's debut novel, A Place In Time, explores the theme of what good people are driven to do in order to survive when pushed beyond human endurance. Dan Campbell is a troubled man who sinks into depression as each birthday approaches. Thirty years earlier, on his 11th birthday, he'd witnessed his father's murder and saved his mother from a deranged stranger, but something is wrong with the memory of that terrible day. Something he can't quite see, something just out of focus. When his annual depression threatens his family's wellbeing, he takes his mother back to his childhood home to confront his memories and find closure. Going back is never easy, but what Dan discovers there will turn his world upside down, for no-one and nothing is as he remembered and he fears for his life !
