Blurb
In 1920s New York, Pinkerton Agent John Brady is assigned to a brutal robbery/kidnapping, an open and shut case with an obvious culprit - but nothing and no one are what they seem.
Small-time crook Cesare Donati has the perfect getaway: a transatlantic cruise ship. When Brady turns up at his cabin door, Cesare knows he is out of options until they reach England.
Will London be a safe haven or a place of reckoning?
My Two Pennies' Worth
For such a short story this packs a punch. It's nicely rounded in both plot and relationship with a great sense of place and excellent pacing. On the surface these two might seem like polar opposites but turns out they have more in common than they realise.
I'm hoping this isn't the last we see of these two.
