Hvad hvis du havde sagt ja? Nogle øjeblikke ændrer alting. Eva og Jim er 19 og studerer begge på Cambridge, da deres veje krydses første gang i 1958. Jim kommer gående på en sti, da en kvinde på cykel pludselig svinger til siden for at undgå at ramme en hund. Hvad der herefter sker, bliver afgørende for resten af deres liv. Vi følger tre udgaver af deres fremtid – sammen og hver for sig – og deres kærlighedshistorie, som den udfolder sig i forskellige inkarnationer fra 1958 og frem til i dag. ”Tre gange os to” er en helt særlig debutroman om de valg, vi tager, og de forskellige veje, vores liv kan følge. ”Velskrevet, fantastisk udtænkt og overraskende frem til slutningen … en fuldstændigt overbevisende kærlighedshistorie om to mennesker, der er bestemt for hinanden lige gyldigt hvad.” – The Times
