Description
Death or Glory? Who wins? Who survives? Who dies?
Two suicidal strangers, failing actor Owen and traumatised Ukrainian refugee Becky, postpone death on the Humber bridge to honey-trap married men. They make easy money until they reach Manchester when a corrupt civil servant dies on Becky in a hotel room. Owen steals the dead man’s identity to con a small fortune from a brain-damaged hero’s trust fund. His impersonation is good, but doesn’t fool a cynical cop or the deceased’s self-harming granddaughter. As their blackmail scam spirals out of control, Owen and Becky must confront their own personal demons or risk drowning in a sea of corruption and criminality.

Without Rules
The Irresponsible Reader
‘This is a rocket-powered ride, totally gripping from beginning to end.’
After the Bridge
Katie Vandyck, screenwriter
‘After The Bridge is consistently entertaining with a lively wit and inventive energy sustained throughout. Particularly appealing is the portrayal of strong women and …. sympathetic characters despite their excesses and flaws.'

After the Bridge

'What a wild ride.'
After the Bridge
Anne Foster, GoodReads Reviewer
‘A well-written, edge-of-your-seat thriller that will keep you up reading past your bedtime. Two strangers meet on a bridge, and hatch a plan that leads to no good. The characters are great...dark, funny, a must-read. I enjoyed it and think you will too. Jump on this!’
After the Bridge
Judy Johnson
‘Contemporary crime noir - fast paced - complex [for me] - enthralling - will have to look up other works by Andrew Field.’
