The Cherub's Reflection

By Joel Burgess

For many, the turn of the millennium means the opportunity for a fresh start. For Jeremy, it only means drifting further through life; fruitless relationships, lonely nights, and a dead end office job.
Only his volunteer work - manning the phones at a local crisis call centre - gives him a sense of purpose. For the last few months, he's been talking to Heather, a young graduate who plays homemaker while desperately trying to fix a broken relationship. She struggles with the cyclical patterns of violence all the while knowing her boyfriend is too lost in his own depression to change. It will be up to her to make the decisions for a future; with or without him.
When Jeremy's coworker is promoted the company hires a replacement. She's smart, vibrant, and instantly disrupts the dull office routine. He trains her on the intricacies of both the technical and social aspects of the position. But what begins as an innocent companionship soon culminates in a night that will change both of their lives forever.
The Cherub's Reflection is a dark, quiet exploration of intimacy in the twenty-first century, and its story of love and violence will move and shock the reader in equal measure.
