Beskrivning

Take three strangers who all want something more. The Polish shift worker struggling to get a foothold in the new country; a fisherman who needs to make good on a promise to his best friend; and the middle man, determined to make up for lost time and take a little of what he deserves. When a chance comes along, each man must weigh the risk - and then keep his nerve as events take on their own unstoppable momentum. Tightly plotted and sharply observed, this is a gripping story of desperation and duty, and the brutal struggle to progress.

Recensioner i media

Is Jones as good a writer as they say? Without a doubt. Edgy, elegant prose combined with masterful characterisation and plot, this novel is everything I had hoped for, and more. Read it, then read it again
