From award-winning writer Nick Payne
A summer barbeque is always where Marianne and Roland first meet.
Almost every time an undeniable, unlikely connection between the quantum physicist and beekeeper begins. However, in the multiverse, every single choice could start or end their story, but which decision makes all the difference?
How much of love, loss, grief and joy is truly inevitable?
