Meet Augustus Mandrell, a professional assassin who takes his deadly business with the utmost seriousness, even if his readers certainly do not. An unforgettable anti-hero, Mandrell is an international scourge, a master of absurd disguise, and a connoisseur of fine living who operates with cynical charm. Whether he is infiltrating a prisoner-of-war camp by forming a troupe of dancing girls or navigating the perilous political landscapes of World War II, Mandrell remains a relentless force of nature.
These interlinked stories, spanning from the backstreets of Ireland to the tension-filled plains of France, offer a masterful blend of slapstick violence, biting gallows humour, and sharp-witted subversion of classic crime tropes. Described by Lee Child as hard-edged and full of genuine tradecraft, these tales provide a unique and exhilarating ride. If you enjoy your thrillers with a heavy dose of irony, outrageous eccentricity, and the bold pursuit of wealth, this classic collection is essential reading. Join Mandrell for his most daring commissions and discover why this Edgar Award-winning series remains a titan of the genre.
