Falling by Olivia Liberty

Imogen Green is gone. Her favourite underwear is not in her drawer, her sexy summer dress no longer hangs in the wardrobe and her passport is not in the bureau. She has left her cat, her garden and her boyfriend, Toby Doubt. As Imogen's departure sinks in, Toby sets out to discover what could have driven his lover away. But her disappearance just doesn't add up. Surely, deep down, Toby knows where Imogen's gone and if she'll be back. This love story with a heart-breaking twist leaves Toby wondering whether there is anyone left to catch him as he falls.
There's a huge buzz around this debut novel.. this is a great slow burn as Toby descends further into madness and the real reason for Imogen's disappearance unravels. * Eve *
Clever and well plotted, Falling is both a surreal comedy and a poignant study of grief. * Guardian *
A writer who has crafted a world with such luminous perception. Both comic and macabre... [there is] an echo of Muriel Spark in the way Liberty's astringent wit is accompanied by glimpses of an appalling underlying reality. A high order of comparison, but appropriate for an unusually strong debut. * Independent *
Olivia Liberty is a freelance journalist. This is her first novel.
