On the A162 from York

It was 1972. She was running; he was drifting...

​Felicity Cooper is on the run from York city, heading south. It's the summer of 1972, but her parents live in the dark ages, demanding she marry Henry, her father's colleague at the bank. Behind her back, her mother's set the date and booked the venue; Henry seems to think she's said yes.

Jack has always drifted in life, much to his family's dismay. Unable to focus on any one thing for long, he's left behind a paying job and a broken heart in a tiny village - he's heading north to the city where no one knows him, the pastels in his art bag his only friends.

On the A162, their two worlds collide when Jack almost hits Felicity with his car.

One day and night together leads to another, and another... Finally standing still, the future suddenly holds promise for them both ... if they can just keep everyone else out of theirs.
