Synopsis:
The drug-overdose death of his beloved only granddaughter leads businessman Charlie Becker on a dangerous quest in search of the individual responsible, a search that propels him into the vicious drug culture and White House inner circles
Review: 'Chris Buckley is America's top humourist' The Spectator 'Buckley subtly merges the sheer entertainment of a good travel yarn with the vicious motivations of greed to produce a story that deserves a strong recommendation' Library Journal 'Deftly plotted, precisely detailed, and remarkably funny... Wet Work is elegant entertainment' National Review
