Lou, a youth counselor, is sitting across from Karen and Simon, a loving, upwardly-mobile looking couple who are speaking quietly to each other. The women in One Moment, One Morning, the debut from novelist Sarah Rayner, find themselves facing these heavy issues head-on in an unlikely place-a commuter train heading to London on an otherwise uneventful Monday morning. When real life comes crashing down, it forces us to think about the heavy issues-life, death, love, self-identity, relationships with others, and just how many lives we touch. This is one of those trite expressions that many of us have said, but rarely think about, until one day when the hard truth of this reality impacts our lives directly.
