Overview

Featuring crooked houses, dodgy coppers and a lot of lockpicking, A Beginner's Guide to Breaking and Entering is a gripping thriller about what it's like to be young, skilled, unemployed - and on the run. Property might be theft. But the housing market is murder. My name is Al. I live in wealthy people's second homes while their real owners are away. I don't rob them, I don't damage anything... I'm more an unofficial house-sitter than an actual criminal. Life is good. Or it was - until last night, when my friends and I broke into the wrong place, on the wrong day, and someone wound up dead. And now ... now we're in a great deal of trouble. __________ Love for The Sanctuary ... 'Imaginative and intriguing ... Andrew Hunter Murray is a young writer to watch.' Anthony Horowitz 'Absolutely brilliant. I'm thinking it needs to be made into a movie!' Zoe Ball 'Gripping, unsettling and original. Andrew Hunter Murray is a fabulous storyteller.' Tim Harford 'Rich in imagination and stylishly written ... Totally absorbing.' Paul Burke, Crime Time FM
