Subway of Light

SUBWAY OF LIGHT a novel by JULIAN BOUND

Because Sometimes a Second Chance is All We Need

Following an accident Josh finds himself sat alone at the back of an empty New York subway car on a deserted station with no memory of how he arrived there.

A man approaches and tells Josh he has been taken out of his life to take a journey on the train. Acting as a guide he explains they will make several stops and that each station visited may seem familiar to him.

Arriving at their first stop they witness a young couple meet for the first time. Their ensuing subway stations follow the young couple's life as they experience courtship, marriage, tragedy and happiness. Watching their lives unfold Josh's memory begins to return until it is he himself who must decide the fate of his own final destination.

A story of awakening, 'Subway of Light' is a healing book of love found, lost, and regained through the act of belief and trust, not only within others but also in ourselves.

A heart-warming modern day tale of kindness, understanding and forgiveness.
