Flying Under Bridges

Description

Inge and Eve are part of the same generation, grew up in the same town, went to the same school together. But adult life has left them with nothing in common apart from their past - until the summer when their lives become entwined again, when one becomes a killer, and the other approves.

Reviews

'full of moments of farce and humorous apercu.' THE TIMES 'quirky social comedy stuffed with smart one-liners.' WOMAN AND HOME 'good timing and an instinctive ability to intrigue.' ATTITUDE 'The middle-English middle class is perfectly pin pointed...very funnny.' TIME OUT 'Toksvig makes you belly laugh, then while you're gasping for air, she makes you think, and sometimes the conclusion is unthinkable. The pathos and sheer tragedy underpinning the humour leaves you reeling. An intelligent, perceptive novel, brilliantly entertaining, with more depth than ten cups of cocoa. Read it.' WHAT'S ON: LONDON '[A] fabulous read.' WOMEN'S NEWS
