The original novel of the classic cult film
Doncaster, and Jack Carter is home for a funeral - his brother Frank's. Frank had been found dead and drunk in his car at the bottom of a cliff. Now, Frank was a mild, sober man, so why did he land up dead in his car at the bottom of a cliff? Jack thinks his death doesn't add up and decides to ask questions. But he is told to stop by Gerald and Les who run a porn 'firm' and Jack is their 'hit' man. Frank did as he was told, but Jack is not like that.
This is a tough, uncompromising novel portraying a stark society of people living on the dangerous border-line between crime and respectability.

Great plot. Very well written. Although I was surprised and somehow disappointed with the ending, I do now think that THAT was actually the way this novel should end.Ana Gomez, La Coruņa Spain
