3 Seconds in Bogota

By Mark Playne

When a young backpacker's dream of a South American adventure with his girlfriend, is on the verge of becoming the ultimate nightmare, he realises he still has a chance to change their fate. Should he follow the logic of his rational mind, or his gut intuition? He has three seconds left to decide. "Superbly crafted, and I love the structure of going back and forth between present tense and flashbacks, stretching time, even making time stand still. Genius! I know it's a cliche to say "couldn't put it down", but it was true in this case, causing me to miss my bus stop (in Buenos Aires now as it so happens) because I was so hooked!" Start the new decade with a riveting true story that will give you faith in the unexplainable magic of our world.
