‘Sharp as an ice pick . . . You will love this excellent book’ New York Times
‘Mr. Paradise
is a perfect crime caper from a master . . . what more do you want?‘ Detroit Free Press

Tony Paradiso – aka Mr Paradise – gets his kicks from watching old football games on TV accompanied by live entertainment: sexy cheerleaders shaking their pom-poms and doing rah-rah routines for his viewing pleasure. But for Chloe Robinette, playing dress-up doesn’t end so well when she’s caught in the crossfire of a contract hit.

There are witnesses to the murders – Paradiso’s right-hand man, Montez Taylor, and Chloe’s roommate Kelly – but neither is giving too much away. Because Montez and Kelly have a score in mind, a big payoff from Mr Paradise’s estate – if only Kelly can convince the cops she’s someone else…

‘Glittering black comedy, a razor-sharp cast of crooks and con men. Very funny, exceedingly tough . . . told in a dialogue sharp enough to draw blood’ Literary Review
