'Sensational. I loved it. An absolute thrill ride' John Niven

Introducing The Last Laugh Club.
Four strangers who meet to discuss the one thing they don’t want to talk about.
But sometimes, when it rains, it pours.
Because retired copper Ray has been mugged. This is unfortunate – mostly for the thief, who ends up dead.
Ray should feel guilty. But doesn’t quite.
And that’s when The Last Laugh Club finds its calling.
There are other bad people out there. People who the world might be better off without.
And once you’ve had a taste, murder is strangely moreish . . .

About the Author
Steve Jones' first job was in a petrol station. It was also the first job he was fired from for putting diesel in Dai-The-Milk's petrol truck.
From there he gained employment in a printing factory before setting off for distant shores to "find himself". He subsequently found a mediocre career in modelling which thankfully segued into a fairly successful twenty-year (to date) career in TV presenting. His cherished accomplishments: he was crowned Welsh Rear of the Year in 2002. His suitcase has come out first at the airport on no less than two occasions, and now, he has written two novels, Call Time and Terminally Kill. Which he very much hopes you will enjoy.
