Overview

A new collection from crime writer Keith Littler whose travels around the UK, Australia and Russia just after the fall of the Soviet Union, have afforded him an insight into the worst and the best of humanity. Nine murders, nine diverse fiendish short stories that transport the reader into an underworld of murder, obssession and conspiracy. From the streets of England's indstrial north, to the depths of rural Wales; from the famine-stricken fields of Ireland, to the tropics of North Western Australia, murder knows no boundaries. Some of the characters you will meet include: a brilliant student who inflicts an accidental fatal blow; a book club member who is encouraged to commit murder based on a well-known novel; the heir to a business empire whose hedonistic lifestyle results in the downfall of the business and the murder of his close friend; an unemployed, humble family man, who is sucked into the drug scene; a crime writer whose affair with his competitor's wife results in the murder of a national newspaper critic. The stories are: Where's Cassie? * The Weak Link * The Disappearance on the A492 * The Shrove Tuesday Incident * The Pub Lunch * Just Desserts * Killer Code * The Country Run * The Rise and Fall of the House of Quilley
