Tinderbox

Michelle is an MP living in London. She considers herself successful and has a plan mapped out for her future. That all changes when she meets Esme, a dark bohemian who ventures to point out Michelle's faults. Her world is turned upside down by an obsessive love that spans a lifetime. And beyond.
Tinderbox is set in the future and narrated in dual timelines as Michelle languishes in a hospital bed and tries to piece together her past.
