Description
Featuring crooked houses, dodgy coppers and a lot of lockpicking, 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.
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.
Love for The Sanctuary ...
