Now available in paperback! A 2006 Book Sense Notable Book “[Larson’s] exquisitely calibrated prose makes clear she knows these people to their bones.” “Slipstream demands to be read from start to finish, if at all possible in one long, shivering gulp." “Larson’s people are alive on the page, and they pulled me along with them as things got scarier and scarier until… Well, you have to read the book to learn that—and trust me, it will be worth it.” "As Larson reminds us in this brilliant novel, everyone in L.A. is just three degrees of separation from the next small apocalypse." Set in and around the eerie expanse of Los Angeles International Airport, Slipstream is an intricately crafted tale of five people whose lives are quietly drawing toward a fateful collision. Though they don’t know it, they’re headed toward an explosive event that will change each of their lives forever. Deftly weaving suspense, humor, and revelation, Slipstream is a rich human drama with the breathless pace of a thriller and a soul of classic Noir. |
“Larson is a writer of tales that are hilarious and heart-breaking at once—no easy feat, but the mark of great storytelling.”
