Is it the end of the road… Or just the beginning?
Combining the storytelling powers of Maeve Binchy with her own unique sense of humour and perception, Father Ted‘s Pauline McLynn crafts a sparklingly original novel, The Woman on the Bus. The perfect read for fans of Ruth Hogan’s The Keeper of Lost Things and Matt Haig’s How to Stop Time.
‘This is Pauline McLynn’s fourth novel, and the author is going from strength to strength with every outing. Fizzing with vividly sketched characters, The Woman on the Bus is a skilfully written story’ – Sunday Tribune
It’s a typical Tuesday evening in Kilbrody. Cathy Long is on her way to collect her drunken father from the pub. Ozzy O’Reilly is in the graveyard, watching the Dublin bus through his binoculars. Charlie Finn is pulling pints, when suddenly it hits him: he’s bored. And that’s when the woman from the bus walks through his door and drinks herself into oblivion. Now the whole village wants to know, who is the woman on the bus? The question is, will she tell them?
What readers are saying about The Woman on the Bus:
‘Her best book so far. Full of real characters, real emotions‘
‘Heartily recommended, can keep you turning page after page. It is worthy of a sequel’
‘A funny yet moving love story set amongst some wonderful scenery‘
