Once they were just them. Now they're forty-something and there's kids. Whose time is this?

Phil is trying to feel closer to his recently passed mother by spending time alone at his parent's house on the coast. But he is lonely, and stupidly he's invited a bunch of old friends to visit. It's bound to be a mistake. All those children! But it's too late now, and tomorrow Bella and Tim will arrive with their two kids, one on the brink of puberty, and the next day Jo and Lucas will come too, with their little one. Then there's Annie, who will be by herself.

The story of a beach holiday told by four different people, Time Together is a novel about different kinds of love, different kinds of loneliness, and the way spending time together can bring out the best and worst in each other.

Praise for The Fogging-

'Claustrophobic and vertiginous ... an unshrinking and skilfully drawn portrait of a decaying relationship. In restrained prose, Horton illuminates the darker edges of masculinity. His is a frequency finely tuned to silences, gaps of language and meaning, things left unsaid - and their cumulative weight. Like a brewing storm on an oppressive summer day, The Fogging is quiet but assured, building towards the thunderclap of its final pages.' -Jennifer Down, author of Our Magic Hour

'The Fogging is disquieting, compelling, and scrupulously observed, exploring themes of mental illness, interconnectedness, and selfhood. Horton observes his characters with a clear and compassionate eye, rendering his protagonist's utter humanity and chronic isolation with stark tenderness and an honesty that moves.' -Laura McPhee-Browne, author of Cherry Beach

'I loved The Fogging. It's such a finely controlled novel, so filled with creeping dread and yet so humane in its attention to psychological detail - those subtle doubts and delusions upon which relationships are built - that I could not look away. It raises the quiet inadequacies of ordinary life to the level of grand tragedy.' -Miles Allinson, author of Fever of Animals
