Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

She runs her own race. An expansive, inspiring feminist novel about one woman's rise as a racing driver in mid-century Britain._________________It's 1945 and Winifred 'Freddy' Vaux fears she's the only person in the country who isn't thrilled the war is over. All she wants is to drive. Ambulances, recovery vehicles, anything. While she's still allowed behind the wheel, it will not be her occupation and certainly not fast.But speeding through the streets in a Victory night race, she makes a resolution: she must pursue race car driving. No matter the cost. From the provincial country lanes of her youth to the most glamorous, exhilarating tracks of Europe, Freddy's thunderous ambition takes her to places no woman has ever gone before. However, in the conservative world of motorsports, she encounters many who don't relish her rise, but anticipate her fall - and travelling at such speeds, friends and lovers can be lost in an instant. Freddy has a lot to learn. Driving was the easy part.____________________Praise for Kelly Frost:'Compelling' The Times'A storyteller who is here to stay' Joseph O'Connor'A startling new talent' Peter James
