When She Was Bad

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2018 'WRITE HERE RIGHT NOW' PRIZE JUST HOW FAR WAS TOO FAR? Life was passing 25-year-old Claire MacDonald by. Okay, so she had a steady office job (but paying barely minimum wage), a too-perfect steady boyfriend (a ‘keeper’, as Mum constantly reminded her) and a roof over her head (albeit in Deptford), but surely there had to be more in life for her than that? Then she found a bag, an expensive Prada rucksack abandoned at Waterloo station. She couldn’t believe her luck. Not just expensive but ridiculously so, a little ray of luxury on that cold winter morning. And she’d been looking for a new bag and the overdraft was growing out of control. So she took it. And, once she’d met the bag’s owner, the enigmatic Barclay, Claire’s predictable, routine life became more thrilling and deadly than she had ever dreamed it could be as she embarked on a career as the getaway driver for a man seemingly out of control.
