About this ebook
Payback Time
You don't want to owe a favour to the mafia, especially not when the boss himself comes to collect. But what could a simple hairdresser like Joe Martin possibly have to offer to the mob?
Gone
A travelling salesman vanishes, leaving behind a wife, two children, countless lonely housewives and his hat floating in a stream. But what really happened to Jack Bryce?
This is a bumper edition containing two short crime stories of 2300 words altogether. Both stories are also available as part of the collection Murder in the Family.
