Publisher Description

Going straight is never easy – especially when you're blackmailed into murder

“What a clever story with a wonderful balance of mystery and suspense and light-hearted comedy and fun.” A Life Through Books.

Career conman Reuben Littlejohn is determined to go straight this time after his release from prison, with the help of his new wife.

But he hadn't counted on stumbling across a plot to kill his parole officer Lucy, with whom he is madly in lust. Or being blackmailed into becoming an accomplice to her murder.

Never have his skills in lying and cheating been so vital! Can he save his own life as well as Lucy’s, without his wife finding out?

If you like Donald Westlake and Colin Bateman, you’ll love this book with its artful blend of comedy and crime and flawed but engaging characters.

“There is a great balance between the Crime/Mystery part of it and the Comedy. I found myself guessing the whole way through, and being wrong quite a bit, while laughing out loud.” Texas Book Nook.
