AN AMAZON BEST BOOK OF THE MONTH PICK FOR LITERATURE AND FICTION 'The Day Tripper is absolutely
astonishing from first page to last. Warm clever hopeful and superbly written. James
Goodhand is a brilliant storyteller at the top of his game. I adored it.' - Stuart Turton
bestselling author of The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle It's 1995 and Alex Dean has it
all: a place at Cambridge University next year the love of an amazing woman named Holly and
all the time in the world ahead of him. That is until a brutal encounter with a ghost from his
past sees him beaten battered and almost drowning in the Thames. He wakes the next day to find
he's in a messy derelict room he's never seen before in grimy clothes he doesn't recognise. A
glimpse in the mirror tells him he's older-much older-his features ravaged by time and poor
decisions. It's 2010-fifteen years since the fight. After finally managing to sleep Alex wakes
the following morning to find it's now 2019 another nine years later. But the next day it's
1999. Never knowing which day is coming he begins to piece together what happens in his life
after that fateful night. But what exactly is going on? Why does his life look nothing like he
thought it would? What about Cambridge and Holly? In this page-turning adventure Alex must
navigate his way through the years to learn that good decisions can have untold impact. And
that might be all he needs to save the people he loves and equally importantly himself.
