ABOUT THE
BOOK
|
|
London Bridges is set in London of the 1990s. A young lawyer comes across a treasure lost in the Blitz, and is tempted into a series of crimes which end eventually in murder. Meanwhile, a very contemporary cast of characters assembles to confound him. The dénouement occurs in the Cotswolds, and involves teddy bears, Greek monks, New Age bikers and the source of the Thames. |
