📖 Blurb
Two people trapped in their different worlds. One by wealth and one by poverty.
Twenty years working for The Firm has given Marcus Barlow everything he wants but has taken his soul in return. Finding a way to leave has become an obsession.
Claire Halford’s life hits rock bottom when she is caught stealing food from Tesco Express. Left alone by her husband with two small children and an STI, her suicide music is starting to play louder in her head.
A chance meeting brings them together. As a mystery virus from China starts to run riot across the country, their worlds collide and they discover they have more in common than they first realised.
Set during the early months of 2020, Maybe It’s About Time is a story about the difficulty of changing lives for the better. Beginning as a funny and satirical view of the egocentric world of professional services, it develops into a heart-warming story of an unlikely friendship that gives both Marcus and Claire hope for a better future.
✍️ About the Author
Neil Boss retired from a career in the corporate world in November 2019 with three clear ambitions: to travel the world and fly fish in exotic locations, to improve his electric guitar playing, and to write a novel he could genuinely be proud of.
When the pandemic arrived in March 2020, his first two ambitions were temporarily put on hold, leaving him time to begin writing. Two and a half years later, his debut novel Maybe It’s About Time was published.
Neil is incredibly proud of the book, which he says makes him laugh and cry in equal measure. He’s even more pleased that readers are enjoying it just as much and that it continues to receive wonderful reviews.
Travel and fly fishing have since resumed, his guitar playing is improving, and plans for a sequel are already underway.
