Cuando mi hija trepa y se tambalea, a punto de caer, en lo alto de la estructura, un grito silencioso se me queda atrapado en la garganta. Así que, cuando un desconocido oye su llanto y corre a ayudarla, me invade una sensación de alivio que me deja sin fuerzas. Pronto empezamos a vernos a diario y noto cómo crece la chispa entre nosotros. Hasta que dice algo que hace que el corazón me dé un vuelco. Algo que me hace pensar que conoce mi secreto. Que sabe lo que ocurrió de verdad en aquel parque, hace tantos años.

Luke Craven is convinced that the world is against him; his once-happy life hasn’t been the same since he lost both of his parents and his wife in quick succession, and his everyday has become more about existing than living. But he is forced to reconsider his glass-half-empty outlook when he narrowly escapes a freak accident with his life - pushed to safety by a stranger, who isn’t so lucky.

I look at our neighbours gathered in the garden for our annual summer barbeque, sipping chilled wine and smiling at my two daughters sprawled on the grass. I go inside to help refill glasses and then I hear it. A shrill scream that stops me in my tracks. I race outdoors to silence, a sea of bewildered faces. My first thought is for my girls, but they are there unhurt. With relief, we push the chilling sound to the back of our minds, returning to our drinks and conversations like it never happened.

It is an ordinary September morning when I nearly lose my little girl. My mouth is dry, my hands shake when I see that she has darted unexpectedly into the playground....

So when a stranger hears her cries and rushes to help, I feel weak with relief. I thank him as my daughter presses her tear-stained face into my skirt. Looking into his warm brown eyes and gentle smile, I feel an instant connection.
