Description
Property might be theft. But the housing market is murder . . . A Beginner's Guide to Breaking and Entering is a gripping thriller about what it's like to be young, skilled, unemployed - and on the run. 'A comic delight' Financial Times 'A thoroughly entertaining mix of whodunnit, social satire and a cunningly smuggled-in love story' Mail on Sunday 'Laugh out loud funny, surprising, shocking, thought provoking ... Loved it' The Times __________ Property might be theft. But the housing market is murder. My name is Al. I live in wealthy people's second homes while their real owners are away. I don't rob them, I don't damage anything... I'm more an unofficial house-sitter than an actual criminal. Life is good. Or it was - until last night, when my friends and I broke into the wrong place, on the wrong day, and someone wound up dead. And now ... now we're in a great deal of trouble. __________ Praise for A Beginner's Guide to Breaking and Entering . . . 'A propulsive plot, an ingenious narrator and lashings of intrigue' Guardian 'It's laugh-out-loud funny, proceeding at a pace that makes it almost impossible to put down.' Sunday Times 'Fantastic' Zoe Ball 'Madly fun and exciting' Lisa Jewell 'Who knew murder could be so funny. A joyous read from start to finish. I loved it!' Clare Mackintosh 'Legit brilliant, FUN and FUNNY and I couldn't recommend it more' Stevie Martin 'Dark, funny, and deeply twisted' Val McDermid 'Witty, dazzling and incredibly addictive' Jenny Colgan 'A bloody brilliant, fantastic book . . . I'm bereft now I've finished it' Philippa Perry '[Andrew Hunter Murray] has written something so funny and clever, you will want to give him a badge.' Cariad Lloyd 'Tremendous fun: a quirky, gripping and insightful novel that kept me reading late into the night.' Elizabeth Macneal 'This is a giddy, addictive thrill ride of a book - who knew accidental espionage was so much fun?!' Daisy Buchanan 'An excellent pacy caper' Professor Sophie Ratcliffe 'Tremendous fun: a quirky, gripping and insightful novel that kept me reading late into the night.' Elizabeth Macneal __________ Five stars for A Beginner's Guide to Breaking and Entering . . . 'I just didn't want this to end. The narrator's voice is very, very engaging: a little cynical, very witty and all round jolly good fun' 'It has some brilliantly written characters and the plot keeps you engaged throughout' 'I was gripped to the very end' 'Great fun, fast paced and quirkily written'
