""On an ordinary London afternoon, a truck swerves across five lanes of traffic and creates a tangle of chaos and confusion. As loved ones wait to hear news and the hospital prepares to receive the injured, a dozen lives hang in the balance. A doctor is torn between helping the injured and hiding his young mistress; a bridegroom hopes to get to the church on time; a widow waiting to reunite with a lost love ponders whether she'll ever see him again; and the mysterious hitchhiker, the only person who knows what really happened, is nowhere to be found. Filled with suspense, romance, and more twists than a country highway." -- Publisher description."@en
""On an ordinary Friday afternoon, on a major motorway outside of London, a trailer truck suddenly and violently swerves across fives lanes of traffic, careening cars into one another like dominoes and leaving a trail of chaos and confusion. Within the space of a minute, an astounding miles-long pileup has amassed. As the survivors await help, their stories unfold".--From English publisher description."
"A hot summer's day, a crowded motorway, a split second that changed a group of people's lives forever."

"Gorący letni dzień, zatloczona autostrada i sekundy, które na zawsze zmieniły życie wielu ludzi. Kierowca ciężarówki i jego przerażona pasażerka, która ucieka z miejsca wypadku, znany lekarz, który usiłuje serwać ze swoją kochanką, pan młody i jego drużba, spóźnieni na ślub, starsza pani, która ma się spotkać na lotnisku ze swoją pierwszą miłością. To, że znaleźli się akurat na tej autostradzie o tej samej porze zaważy w sposób dramatyczny, ale też wzruzający, na ich dalszym życiu."
"On a hot summer's day, a crowded motorway and a split second that changed a group of people's lives. But is it for the worst, or can it be for the best? In the aftermath of the crash, urgent questions must be answered: who was to blame? Who was the girl seen running away from the site of the accident? And can there be any escape from the relentless power of fate?"@en
"Een groot ongeluk op een drukke snelweg net buiten Londen zet het leven van vele mensen compleet op zijn kop zodat het leven na het ongeluk nooit meer hetzelfde zal zijn."
