Book ID/图书代码： 03540011B48652
English Summary/英文概要： Free-Falling is a tragic-romantic comedy - of heartbreak and heroism, grief and ghostly dreams...Belinda is not coping well with her fiancé Andy’s death - and that is before she realises she is pregnant … with twins.
When out of the blue she starts receiving gifts that were so typical of Andy, and when problems around the apartment are mysteriously fixed, Belinda decides she now believes in ghosts.
Meanwhile Evelyn, Andy’s mother, is also struggling with her loss. Her coping strategies include blaming Belinda, shop-lifting, hating Belinda even more, and taking up sky-diving. And it is Baz, her instructor, who helps her look to the future. So why is he so twitchy when he hears how Andy died?
Cutting between the past and present, Nicola Moriarty cleverly weaves the heart-warming story of two women and the man they loved and lost.

About the Author/作者介绍： Nicola Moriarty是一个居住在悉尼西北部的学生，母亲，游泳教练和作家。她曾当过演员，服务员（相当糟糕），伦敦一个酒吧的酒保（同样糟糕），营销协调员和上门推销人。大约五年前的一天，她决定尝试写了自己的第一部小说，惊悚小说。在写了大约10000子之后，情节变得太过复杂，即使她也不明白发生了什么，所以她的手稿以及她的写作事业就这样被放弃了。两年后，她决定重新开始，这一次决定写浪漫悲喜剧（至少她是这么认为的）。
经过三年的写作和改写，期间她生了两次小孩，换了三次工作，试图运行一个礼品篮业务，决定在麦克里大学开始教学，她的第一部小说终于完成。 她目前辞职不当游泳教练转而照顾她4个月大的女儿，部分时间学习如何成为高中英语和戏剧老师。
Nicola Moriarty is a student, mother, swimming teacher and now writer who lives in Sydney’s North West. She has been an actress, a (terrible) waitress, an (equally terrible) bartender in a London pub, a marketing coordinator and a door-to-door sales person. One day, about five years ago she decided to try and write her first novel, a thriller. After 10,000 words the plot had become so complicated that even she couldn’t understand what was going on, and so that manuscript and her potential writing career was abandoned. Two years later she decided to start again, this time with a tragic romantic comedy (at least that’s what she thinks it is).
After three years of writing and re-writing in between giving birth twice, changing jobs three times, attempting to run a gift hamper business and deciding to start a teaching degree at Macquarie University, her first novel has finally been completed.
She is currently on leave from her job as a swimming teacher to look after her four-month-old daughter and studying part time to become a high school English and Drama teacher.
