It’s the year 2018 and middle aged Andy Johnston is taking his normal mid-day walk along Princess Street in Edinburgh when he stops to gaze in a jeweler’s shop window. There quite near to the window is the most unusual fob watch he has ever seen. It is gold, and the backing is a mixture of Royal Stewart Tartan and gold. The longish chain, meant for hanging from the waistcoat pocket, is also gold. He is intensely attracted to this watch, especially the gold roman figures, and black hands. He enters the shop to enquire how much it would cost to purchase.
Regardless of the price which is indeed high, he pulls out his credit card and makes the purchase. Had he been aware in advance of the secret powers of this watch and of the troubles ahead, he might have thought more than twice about this purchase. Because mainly of the price one has to pay to own it–it has sat in this window for a very long time. The Jeweler warns him as he writes out the guarantee and sales slip, that he might just regret having bought it, as time passes. Strange occurrences begin as soon as he sets foot outside of the shop and makes his way proudly to the nearby park below Edinburgh Castle.
The famous big Ben clock in London normally ticks on and on, through time. Every hour, on the hour, it sends its loud gongs across London, announcing the time, and almost deafening those who happen to be near. The population of London set their watches and clocks daily to Big Ben, and would be completely lost without it. Further away in Edinburgh Scotland, high up in the Castle rock stands the big one o’clock gun- A big cannon that goes off regularly at one o’clock, every day, freezing people to the spot for a few moments, and rattling old people’s bones with the vibration it causes, whilst they also check their watches, and in the houses, all clocks are set the same way.
The gun resounds across the City of Edinburgh, and will be missed terribly if it does not go off. As we live with this kind of repetition, so our lives are dependent on the repetition of our heart beats. The day that beat stops forever, our lives are over, just as when the clocks stop, time stands still. One of Nostradamus’s predictions are about to come true. Andy is unaware of the disruption of those elements his watch is about to cause, and innocently shows it off to his friends in the park. The watch enjoys its new found freedom of not being cooped up in the Jeweler’s shop window and big changes are made to time.
Andy and his wife Amy Johnston live in an old Edinburgh City Tenement, above which the Castle looms. They rely each day on the one o’clock gun going off in the castle, even though the loud boom rocks the dishes on the kitchen shelf, and just about bursts their ear drums when it goes off, Edinburgh would not be the same without it.
So far time has passed over Nostradamus’s predictions, of life and the world coming to an end. Panic strikes in cities all over the United Kingdom, when suddenly, and unexpectedly, Big Ben begins losing time, and the one o clock gun in Edinburgh fires too soon. There must be a reason! All clocks begin to lose time or stop altogether. When people begin to keel over and die of obvious sudden and unexplained heart failure, panic takes hold. Andy and Amy eventually can’t take it anymore when their neighbours begin fighting because they don’t understand what is happening to them. They then decide to pack a few bags and travel to Amy’s sister Ellie who lives in the Northern Hebrides.
Andy has time to think when on the train, and eventually realizes the meaning of strange dreams he has been having, and discovers he has oracle powers. He actually had predicted the standing still of time, when he was a boy, and now it is all coming to light. No one understands why he becomes so attached to his watch, or why it does not stop as all other watches are now doing Neighbors gang up on him accusing him of some kind of lechery. Only backing off when they discover his predicti

I enjoyed the book at first it caught my attention quickly then it started bouncing around all over the place. i had to reread pages and paragraphs to understand where it was heading.
