Crazy Love
Crazy Love
Crazy Love, based on the author's own experiences, is a vivid novel that explores how - as the Van Morrison song suggests - crazy love can take away the troubles. However, it can also add a whole lot more.
'We save each other, don't we, when we are in love.'
It has been 28 years since Vicki last sent a letter to Robert Muldoon. Last time she wrote, he was Prime Minister, while she was living with her loser-boyfriend and questioning why people like her had to exist in such dire straits. Back then, Muldoon sent her a dollar, but it was the irrepressible Billy who turned up and transformed her life. This time, Muldoon is dead, and it is Billy who has made her so desperate she doesn't know where to turn.
Since running away with Billy, Vicki has barely looked back. Together, they have become a family and prospered. They have survived so much, but can they survive Billy's increasingly erratic behaviour, especially when he seems so set on pulling them apart?
