About this deal

Lowbridge is a chilling mystery with a cast of believable characters. It follows two timelines set in small-town New South Wales: one in the 1980s and the other thirty-odd years later. Lucy Campbell skilfully and gradually weaves these two stories together and eventually we learn why Lowbridge has kept its secrets for so long. I’m always up for an Aussie crime read and I couldn’t wait to read this debut. Lowbridge by Lucy Campbell was full of mystery and tension and the characters were realistic, I found it very haunting and unforgettable. The two timelines work really well together, the teenage girls re-appearing in the current timeline as middle aged women was a nice touch and a great way to bring the two stories together. The small-town feel where everybody knows everyone's business came across well; nothing is forgotten even 40 years later. The joy and excitement of being a teenage girl, talking about your future, boys, jobs, everything all felt very fresh and real. Katherine's grief and pain at losing her daughter is palpable and you can feel her utter devastation and sadness at the rift between her and Jamie. From 1937, a 24-volt electrical system and the oil-engine, both previously optional, became standard, the frame had greater depth over the front wheel arches and a new 7.4-litre push-rod overhead-valve (OHV) petrol engine, known within Leyland as the Mark III, was built for Bournemouth and Eastbourne.

In 1969 the line was moved to Ashok Leyland for continued production using Ashok Leyland running units: a link to the current Ashok Leyland specification sheet is included below. Townsin, Alan A. and Senior John A. (1979). The Best of British Buses No.1 Leyland Titans 1927–42. Glossop: Transport Publishing Company. p.8. ISBN 978-0-903839-56-3. "Maudslay had the same advances in engines but although the ML6 had a "remotely comparable" specification to the TS1, Leyland outsold Maudslay massively" Katherine is an odd main counterpart, and she reads well just because of her idiosyncrasies. Her grief is the fuel that both pushes her and pulls her down, but she is relentless when she wants to get informations. She doesn’t bend to social expectations, not really, and that’s a refreshing take. Miscommunications or fake politeness work both in fiction and in real life; someone who speaks her mind when needed works better. After withdrawal, althoughsome were scrapped,many RLH buses found a second life abroad where the desire to operatered London buses for tourist purposes, combined with the generally lowerheight clearancesin continental Europe and north America, made them readily saleable. Many which had spent all their operational lives in London service wearing green ‘country’ colours now found themselves painted red for service in their new homes.The park combines the peace and quiet of a small, exclusive location with the convenience of Knaresborough Market Square only a short walk away. However, cached tweets show that she was reaching out to potential interviewees as early as 2 September 2020.

PD2/4 was the air-braked equivalent of the PD2/3. A total of 125 were built between 1948 and 1950, with Bolton Corporation taking 100 with Leyland bodies, and Bury Corporation the remaining 25 with Weymann bodies. It’s late summer and a time of change when a 17-year-old girl leaves the local shopping centre in the sleepy town of Lowbridge and is never seen again. Her unsolved disappearance is never far from the town’s memory. There’s those who grew up in the shadow of her loss whose own lives were altered forever, and those who know more than they’re saying. It just takes an outsider to ask the right questions. At this time Leyland had by far the best bus advertising in the trade press, only Albion Motors coming anywhere near. Albion sold on low first cost and fuel economy, while saying that they were "As Sure As The Sunrise" in reliability; but Leyland's advertising had the "Zoo" names to fix individual models in customers' minds, and in particular they used a photograph of the original TD1 prototype TD9522, passing underneath the 15ft mediaeval Stonebow in Lincoln with clearance to spare, which they accompanied with the slogan "Bury your trams: mark their passing with Titans." Lincoln City Transport had the first production TD1, which was exhibited at Olympia prior to delivery. [9]This takes much too long to get going. I’m a big fan of Australian crime fiction, but this one didn’t understand the assignment. 10% in and absolutely nothing had happened - sure, doesn’t have to be thriller pace, but this was too low brow for literary fiction, so we do need to see some action or literally any sort of intrigue.
