Book description
Fresh from Los Angeles, Mrs Pearl Collingwood and her daughter Rona
arrive in the frenzied no-man's-land of Heathrow airport: from the
nearby village of Bedmansworth, Edward Richardson jets in and out of it
faster than his marriage can tolerate. Yet precisely where village and
airport overlap, there exists a world bubbling with intrigues and
assignations, with wit, pathos and excitement, that all readers of
Leslie Thomas will recognize as his alone.
