Called a "scorching, salty beach read," To Lie Within the Moment offers a unique portrait of Jim Mercer, who has to determine what meaning his life has, after his wife, Mary, commits suicide. He is helped in this by Anna Lipscomb, who has been intimate with both Jim and Mary. Jim's solution, during the hours after Mary's suicide, is to try to escape from the power of this "moment," and through a controversial relationship, Anna helps him begin.
From the Publisher
M.R.M. Parrott's sense of style and form is sophisticated, while not resorting to esoteric images and long passages. The feeling after reading To Lie Within the Moment is that the characters become living, breathing, people, and the author leaves you wanting to hear more and more about them.
