Tomorrow

The spellbinding historical tale for readers who love The Night Circus and The Mermaid and Mrs Hancock




A literary debut which crosses continents and spans centuries as a dog spends 200 years searching for his master

Our canine hero has roamed 16th century Europe for decades with his master, the chemist Valentyne. He has visited realms far and wide, stayed in palaces, served kings, witnessed wonders. And above all he was loved. How he was loved.

Until the day the polymath Vilder appeared, and the dog's beloved master disappeared from his side, 200 years ago. 200 years spent waiting for his return.

But he doesn't lose hope. He will never rest until he finds Valentyne, even if it takes 200 years more. Because tomorrow is another day. And tomorrow could be the day that reunites them.
