Book description
Roy Dillon is young, good-looking and devastatingly charming. He's also
a completely amoral con man. Lily, his mother, works for the mob. Moira
Langtry, Roy's mistress, is always looking for the main chance, and so
is Carol Roberg, the nurse brought in to look after Roy when a bad
choice of mark means he has an unfortunate encounter with a baseball bat
and a bad case of internal bleeding. Together they make up a perverse
quadrangle of love and greed in a coruscating novel of corruption.
