For Your Pleasure & Questionable Behaviour
Book One, the treachery of poker machines, especially enchanted poker machines which will take far more than you ever expected unless you are wary. Our hapless protagonist lives a sad little life in a sad little town, but he has hopes for the future. The trickster machine knows exactly how to instill a little excitement into John's going-nowhere existence, and how to play him, too. Unfortunately for John, the price is way beyond what he can afford.
Book Two, Morris is nobody's fool. His offsider, Spider, being not the sharpest knife in the drawer, looks to Morris for guidance and support. Unfortunately, the pair are into Eddie (Nails) Madden, would-be crime boss, for money owed for their drug supply. They are offered a means of working off their debt and freeing themselves from the master manipulator. The job entails disposing of a personal enemy of Eddies, but the reasons for the killing are entirely misleading, covering up the real reason for such vengeance being administered. But neither Morris nor Spider, when they find out the truth, are prepared to carry out the assignment. A measure of cunning is required to make it appear as if the job has been done, freeing them of their financial burden. In the process, Spider and Morris find it within themselves to turn over a new leaf and to re-join society as improved human beings.
