September 2001. The world has changed overnight. But what has devasted New York
presents Ben and Abby with an opportunity. Will they create a new life for themselves and
add to the hurt around them, or do they no longer care enough even to rescue each other? A
vicious war of the sexes played out in real time against a backdrop of terror.
Nihilistic yet brutally honest, The Mercy Seat is ultimately a story about ordinary, imperfect
people. Two lonely people who, at a time of global turmoil, are still defined by their own
inadequacies, fears and egos.
