Synopsis

For conman Reuben Littlejohn going straight was never going to be easy. Then he’s blackmailed into murder – and it gets a whole lot harder.

Career conman Reuben Littlejohn is determined to go straight this time after his release from prison, with the help of his new wife.

But he hadn't counted on stumbling across a plot to kill his parole officer Lucy, with whom he is madly in lust.

Or being blackmailed by nefarious criminal Frank Cornell into becoming an accomplice to her murder.

Never have his skills in lying and cheating been so vital! Can he save his own life as well as Lucy’s – without his wife finding out?

If you like Donald Westlake and Colin Bateman, you’ll love this book with its artful blend of comedy and crime and flawed but engaging characters.

Review

"There is a great balance between the Crime/Mystery part of it and the Comedy. I found myself guessing the whole way through, and being wrong quite a bit, while laughing out loud. A Great Combination!" TexasBookNook.

"This story keeps you guessing to the very end. Very well written and paced great. Totally recommending!" B.J. Gaskill

"There's plenty of suspense, romance, plot twists and humour in this entertaining and absorbing book." David Busch
