Living The Difference

Richard Frost

Following the hugely successful Looking To Move On, we continue the journey of Sophie & Matt and all the lives they touch in this beautiful observation of love, life and death.

The story commences on the same day as Looking To Move On concludes. We follow newly-weds Sophie and Matt West together with Tilly, the daughter from his first marriage, as thry continue their life in Eastwood Minster. Two other stories are weaved in with that of the Wests. The first is about Liz James (who conducted Matt and Sophie's wedding), as she encounters a range of situations in her work as a vicar. The story also recounts her close friendship with Alice Nichols, a history teacher at the local college (who has her own story from the past), together with encounters with Mrs Conway who was in the original book and now diagnosed with dementia. Liz also meets Nick, the previously unnamed bus driver who witnessed the original accident and is experiencing PTSD. The second interweaved story is that of Jess Wilson, engaged to local troublemaker Steve Archibald. There are many twists and turns in this wonderfully written observation of love, life and death.
