Mark Watson - One Minute Away
Award-winning writer and comedian Mark Watson returns with another funny, thought-provoking novel.
That's three sashimi rolls. Two vegetable dumplings. One life-changing encounter. Your delivery is on its way ...
For delivery rider Damir, time is money.
He races through cycle lanes next to Uber drivers and grocery vans, delivering your every desire. He arrives with your sushi rolls and pizzas and disappears into the night - Ping! Onto the next drop.
He is invisible: one player in the boardgame of the city.
But one summer's evening, in a postcode that could be another universe, Damir arrives on Decca's doorstep with a bag of spilled edamame beans, and there's an immediate connection.
The man on the bike crosses the divide - suddenly fully seen. And a throwaway delivery sparks a chain of events that will change all their lives, forever.
