Book Synopsis''Charlie Higson''s thrillers are major events'' Mark Billingham
''Funny, very tough and full of action'' Patricia Highsmith
''Uncoils with wit and imagination'' Time Out
It seemed straightforward enough. Sean had now consumed so much alcohol that everything seemed perfectly reasonable. He''d started planning the job already. The first problem was how to do it. Thirteen thousand pounds in an envelope seems a fair price for a man''s life. Particularly if you don''t know the man, he seems a nonentity, and you quite fancy his wife. And there''s no chance of being caught. Sean is a drifter, working as a building labourer and waiting for something to happen.
When Sean is offered easy money to tail someone and even more easy money to dispose of him, it''s all more tempting than you might think. Except when you realize that you''ve been led up the garden path the whole way...
