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?

Sensational. I loved it. An absolute thrill ride

John Niven

About Steve Jones

Steve Jones' first job was in a petrol station. It was also the first job he was fired from for putting diesel in Dai-The-Milk's petrol truck.
From there he gained employment in a printing factory before setting off for distant shores to "find himself". He subsequently found a mediocre career in modelling which thankfully segued into a fairly successful twenty-year (to date) career in TV presenting. His cherished accomplishments: he was crowned Welsh Rear of the Year in 2002. His suitcase has come out first at the airport on no less than two occasions, and now, he has written two novels, Call Time and Terminally Kill. Which he very much hopes you will enjoy.
