One man’s last journey. One hundred and fifty-eight chances to save his life. 
The unforgettable new book from award-winning writer and comedian Mark Watson! 
'Mark Watson is one of my favourite writers and Contacts is by far his best book yet' Adam Kay 
‘Witty, emotional and beautifully written’ Jill Mansell 
‘It made me laugh, cry, reflect and want to check in on all my friends’ Emma Gannon 
'This is such a great book, funny and serious and daring and humane' Richard Curtis\nJames Chiltern boards the 23:50 sleeper train from London to Edinburgh with two pork pies, six beers and a packet of chocolate digestives. At 23:55 he sends a message to all 158 people in his contacts, telling them that he plans to end his life in the morning. He then switches his phone to flight mode. He’s said goodbye. To him, it’s the end of his story – and time to crack open the biscuits.\nBut across the world, 158 phones are lighting up with a notification. Phones belonging to his mum. His sister. His ex-best friend. The woman who broke his heart. People he’s lost touch with. People he barely knows. And for them, the message is only the beginning of the journey.\nFunny and wise, tender and deeply moving, Contacts is a beautiful story about the weight of loneliness, the importance of kindness – and how it’s never too late to reach out.
