Description
'Charlie Higson's thrillers are major events' Mark Billingham 'Very funny and utterly unstoppable' The Times 'A sizzlingly paced modern thriller' NME A man kills a prospective buyer for his car. On the verge of becoming a name in the interior design world, he can't afford a scandal and must discreetly dispose of the body - not an easy job when the whole of London seems to be conspiring against him. Action, consequence, retribution: Getting Rid of Mister Kitchen is a sustained nightmare of thwarted ambition, a Dante-esque tour of a world at home with Tarantino and temazepam, where motive is meaningless and justice is just another victim.

ReviewsCharlie Higson's thrillers are always major events * Mark Billingham * A funny, frightening book, full of powerful, open-hearted material and with a strong line in suspense * TLS * A sizzingly paced modern thriller with outbursts of thumpingly sick black humour... It is fast. It is cruel. It is comical. It is vastly entertaining, and not a little disturbing * NME * A tour-de-force... captures right-wing arrogance magnificently * Scotland on Sunday * This is a black farce with bells on, or Martin Amis as slapstick... very funny and utterly unstoppable * The Times *
