About this listen
A stunning historical novel from multi-million-copy bestselling author Sheila O'Flanagan
Dublin. The 1920s. As war tears Ireland apart, two young people are caught up in events that will bring love, tragedy - and the hardest of choices.
In a country fighting for freedom, it's hard to live a normal life. Winnie O'Leary supports the cause, but she doesn't go looking for trouble. Then rebel Joseph Burke steps into her workplace. Winnie is furious with him about a broken window. She's not interested in romance. But love comes when you least expect it.
Joseph's family shelter fugitives and transport weapons. Joseph would never ask Winnie to join the fight; but his mother and sisters demand commitment. Will Winnie choose Joseph, and put her own loved ones in deadly danger? Or wait for a time of peace that may never come?
Ireland's tumultuous independence struggle is the backdrop for an unforgettable story of courage and heartbreak, in which heroes are made of ordinary people. Inspired by the story of Sheila O'Flanagan's grandmother, The Woman on the Bridge is the unmissable, compulsive new novel from a bestselling author.

A really good read! Enjoyed it thoroughly.
I have never 'met' a Sheila O'Flanagan book I haven't loved and this one did not disappoint. I wanted to pace myself so I didn't finish it too quickly. However just couldn't. I was so wrapped up in the story, I kept listening at every opportunity. I also learned about some of the history of Ireland I did not know before.

Interesting story that got a bit lost
Interesting story of the Irish during conflict at the start of the 20C. Felt it got a bit lost in the middle but a good story overall.
