But why is Bernard so single-minded? As his manic testimony unspools, his story takes on a darker tone: he is, in fact, in mourning for a wife and child he has lost to the skies, and paralysed by an uncertainty surrounding their deaths. If his efforts to re-create history cannot bring back his loved ones, can they at least bring him peace as he struggles to live with his loss?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adam Ouston\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1919639845\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781919639840\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Splice\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/18\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.45d","brand":"Adam Ouston","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43987209126143,"sku":"9781919639840","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_88962eb5-5403-4e83-aaa9-7df22cab2049.jpg?v=1683287610","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/waypoints-adam-ouston-9781919639840","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
