About this ebook
A vintage collection of short stories from the bestselling author of Light a Penny Candle and Circle of Friends.
Millions of people travel on London's tube every day, yet we usually give our fellow passengers only a cursory glance. But each one of these nameless passengers has their own story to tell.
At Notting Hill, the mysterious secretary, harbouring her secrets, travels to work; at Highburyand Islington, Adam has a sudden change of heart; and at Holborn, a disastrous reunion is about to take place...
With her characteristic mix of compassionate humour and biting realism, this vintage collection of stories is Maeve Binchy at her very best
