But he doesn't know that a shadow from his past is looking for him - with the intention of maybe breaking a few limbs.

About this title

From the Publisher

Jerry Raine writes with a deceptive simplicity about ordinary people engaged in ordinary lives. Inevitably things start to go wrong. Don't expect big shoot-outs or international spy intrigues in Jerry Raine's novels, just characters you know and believe and locations that are invariably suburban high streets. Don't get the idea that Small Change is a small novel; far from it. He has the power to hook from the very first chapter. An enjoyable and worthwhile novel that's also great entertainment.
