Airs Above the Ground
Airs Above the Ground | Mary Stewart
10 posts | 14 read | 11 to read
Vanessa March, two years married and very much in love, is propelled to Vienna by a shocking discovery. In her charge is young Timothy Lacy, who also has urgent problems to solve. But what promises to be no more than a delicate personal mission turns out to involve the security forces of three countries, two dead men, a circus and its colourful personnel and the famous white stallions of Vienna.

AIRS ABOVE THE GROUND is awesome so far! Lots of interesting relationships and great tension as Vanessa digs into the mystery of her displaced husband. I‘m gonna binge-read it tonight while I puppysit these two wrestling enthusiasts and their slightly calmer brother.

bookandbedandtea I love this book, Mary Stewart generally, and that cover! 💜 3mo

Daisy lives nearish to a bookstore that maintains a public list of everything its patrons want. I had a bunch of things on there, so today I traded in a big bag of books and came away with two Mary Stewart novels to feed my recent craving. I‘ve also got tons of credit left; an excuse to visit again while I‘m here!

Ruthiella Nice!👍 4mo

I do like a Mary Stewart book. 😊 A quibble about the narrator: she did accents well and differentiated the minor characters but the two characters who did the most talking sounded alike. Esp weird as one was female and the other male.

My latest #ReadingEurope2020 trip took me to Austria, revisiting a favorite author from my teens. Mary Stewart's books were some of my first 'adult' books. Lipizzaner horses, a circus, and a couple of mysteries to be solved made this an enjoyable read.

It turns out the adventure was much more than looking for Vanessa's husband and following the circus...
A shadowy agency (I.e. spies!) prevents me from expanding on the details, but it was thrilling! Zooming in a Mercedes through mountain roads, climbing in a rack railway, being chased over a chateau roof. 😳

Great company, exciting adventures, and quite a few surprises along the way!

Imagine finding out from a garrulous friend that your husband of 2 years just appeared on a newsreel from Vienna, meaning he is not in Stockholm, as he said. What to do? Take action! Jump on the chance to chaperone the friend's son to Vienna!

What do I do? Join in the adventure! Vanessa and I intend to find out what exactly is going on...
