Causes of Consequences

A romantic thriller which follows its protagonist from his teens into adulthood and is set against a backdrop of recent historical events. The main theme that permeates throughout is the lasting impact of trauma, demonstrating a range of human vulnerabilities: love, loss, loyalty, betrayal, and survival.

As the country reels from the consequences of the coal miners’ strike of the mid-eighties, young Owen Morgan’s life changes significantly due to a violent event. From that moment, his journey raises questions about destiny.

While history is plunging from one catastrophe to another, so does Owen’s life, navigating within a complex world. From the end of the Thatcher experiment to the troubles in West Belfast and insurgency in North Africa, Owen’s life meets many challenges as he searches for inner peace. Haunted by the choices he makes and their consequences, he finds profound love in a tragically short-lived relationship. A childhood friend resurfaces to set the conditions for Owen’s atonement in the ancient sands of the Sahel.

The story addresses what can be learned from past traumas, exploring themes of love, loyalty, and betrayal, whilst revealing the rawness of human frailty.
