Love's Long Road by G.D. Harper - Book Tour
Love’s
Long Road
Glasgow,
1975. How do you cope when your boyfriend kills himself because of you?
When Bobbie
Sinclair’s boyfriend commits suicide and blames her, she vows never to love
again. Instead she chooses to lead a double existence, kind-hearted by day and
promiscuous by night. She increasingly struggles to maintain the balance
between light and dark and soon finds herself sucked into the world of a
controlling and ruthless crime lord from which she must escape.
Set against a
vibrant but seedy 1970s Glasgow backdrop, Love’s
Long Road plots Bobbie’s desperate plight. Starting a new life but
constantly afraid of her past catching up with her, she battles danger,
adversity and drug addiction on the long and perilous road back to love.
Love’s
Long Road is about dealing with the guilt of
terrible events in your past and the risk of being corrupted by the world
around you; it is a story that captures to perfection what it was like to be
young and single in the 1970s.
