"John Muggleton has the devious insight of Patricia Highsmith, the ingenious plotting of an Agatha Christie mystery with the dramatic pace of a Hitchcock thriller. Think of a crazy blend of ‘Dial M for Murder’, ‘Strangers on a Train’, ‘And Then there were None’.
In the contemporary era of lucractive, financial scams, this is a meticulously crafted, slick, psychological thriller which delves into the exploitation of unsuspecting victims to plan the perfect crime. Type your paragraph here."
