A literary whodunit set in an unreliable 1962, <i>The Suspension Bridge</i> takes place in a Canadian river city dreaming of fame as it sets about building the world&#8217;s biggest bridge. The newly-arrived Sister Harriet navigates a chaotic first year at upscale Saint Reginald&#8217;s Academy, where the mysterious disappearance of boarding students complicates her ongoing identity crisis. The sinister bridge is meant to usher in a new era for Bothonville (pronounced Buttonville), but the inner lives of several characters, including Harriet&#8217;s, fall victim to its supernatural influence. Part comic allegory and part fairy tale, The Suspension Bridge takes the reader, with dark humour and occasional sympathy, into a midair world of bridges of many sorts, that don&#8217;t always hold up as well as they promise.
