ABOUT THE NOVEL
To everyone in London, Emma Cooper has the world at her feet. Against all odds she has landed a Wall Street job, she is being fast-tracked by the high-flying Brad, and is living the high life in Manhattan. And it’s only a question of time before gorgeous Doctor Anthony returns from Africa and pops the question.
Emma is not going to ruin their illusion.
Gone are the days of dancing until sunrise… now sunrise is when Emma leaves the office. Investment banking is rough, competitive and a man’s world. Support comes with strings. Friends are fickle. It’s all about the deals, the bonus and the brand. Lonely, exhausted and emotionally vulnerable, Emma refuses to give up. And she can’t. Because she has a huge secret…
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING…
‘White Knights definitely gets my thumbs up!’ Karabo Kgoleng, presenter SAfm Literature Show, Jozi
‘Loved the depth and multiple themes of White Knights. A simple story, almost allegory, with legs. Had me thinking long after the twist was revealed! A difficult story to write but intelligently done! Loved it!’ Sarah, medical doctor, Cape Town
‘The underlying theme of the story is timeless and the novel is immediately engaging. White Knight is well written and has hidden depths. Thoroughly enjoyable!’ Lizzie, teacher, Cape Town
‘Highly readable! Super job of making investment banking understandable (not an easy task, I know). Loved the new perspectives on NYC: the characters’ lives in the city are different from experiences and locations I’ve read about in other “chick lit” books like Nanny Diaries & Bergdorf Blonds. Great novel!’ Christina, ex-investment banker, New York
‘Mid-twenties angst personified! Readers across a variety of demographics will relate to Emma’s disappointments, confusions, twisted reasoning and deep down optimism. Loved the twist in the tail!’ Leslie,marketing, Jozi
‘Loved White Knights so much I couldn’t put it down. Have been going to bed late every night so I could carry on reading. Astrid should be congratulated on a brilliant first novel. I hope she writes another because I’ll be sure to read it!’ Rachel, tennis coach, Jozi
‘My husband jumped the queue! He finished White Knights in 2 days and said it was spot on re banking and much more than girl’s beach read! Seriously impressive feedback given that he’s such a tough task master! Can’t wait to start reading myself!’ Caroline, stay-at-home mum, London
‘Lucky my husband can look after himself as I didn’t put the book down until I had read it all… Even my dog didn’t get her walk today…I had to finish the book!’ Gloria, personal assistant, Jozi
‘Loved White Knights for so many reasons - it made me laugh, I had a heap of aha! moments and it inspired me to stand up for myself. It made me realize I’m not alone and reminded me that dreams are there to be chased!’ Alex, lawyer, San Fran
