Milo'S Marauders

Darren Mile has been in and out of prison since he was fifteen.

Now twenty-seven, he's released from his latest stretch and returns home vowing to go straight.

But things aren't that easy; his girlfriend has ditched him, he has to live on his brother's sofa and he can't get a job to save his life.

On top of this, DS Weasel of CID keeps pulling him in for every little thing that happens in town.

Now his former criminal mates have a humdinger of a job they want him in on - a massive out-of-town supermarket.

All he has to do is put together a gang of seven or eight lads and he could have the biggest payout of his life. Or the biggest headache. Milo's Marauders is the first in a new series of crime capers from the author of The Burglar Diaries.

Set in the same crap town as King's riotous debut and featuring some of the same dodgy characters, Milo's Marauders will have you laughing like a maniac and gagging for more.
