A uniquely funny story that will keep you turning the page, from beloved TV presenter, Steve Jones

Former policeman Ray ‘Sugar’ Leonard is no stranger to bad breaks. But even Walter White never had to \"share his feelings\" with a bunch of misfits like Ray’s chemotherapy group: a giant Welsh bouncer, a Wolf of Wall Street wannabe, and a potty-mouthed little old lady.


Compared to that lot, getting mugged almost came as a relief.

But Ray is not your average victim. When his training kicks in, and his would-be attacker winds up dead, he starts to wonder who else he could deal out such summary justice to . . .

After all, he’s got cancer. What’s he got to lose?
