Connecting Flights - Short Stories (Paperback)

This is a collection of eighteen short stories ranging from bank robbery to murder, from insouciant spies to cheating friends and lovers. Are the heroes and villains linked by more than the themes of love and loneliness, loyalty and betrayal, redemption and loss? Each tale unveils new characters in a colourful cast colliding from different yet somehow connecting worlds - unpredictable and irresistible. Be prepared for twists right to the last page and don't be surprised when you put down Connecting Flights if you feel shell-shocked and need to draw breath. 'This is a beguiling book, so beguiling that you wonder whether some of these short stories are long enough.' Vic Marks, BBC cricket commentator/The Observer 'Realistic and unsentimental view of human failings, coupled with an ironic humour. Andy Langdon's writing is bubbling over with colour, variety and imagination.' Robin Lloyd-Jones, Booker Prize Nominee 'Andy Langdon's writing is so vivid that you find yourself entranced in another world, only jolted out of it by reaching the end of the story. One of his tales literally sent a shiver down my spine ' Ed Dutton, 65 Degrees North
