The newest third darkly humorous thriller in the Happy Doll series, from the author of You Were Never Really Here

HE'S ON THE RUN

Happy Doll crosses the Mexican border with a bullet in his shoulder and a cartel out for his blood.

HE'S DONE WITH VIOLENCE

Soon he has a new identity and a peaceful new life on a secluded beach. Maybe he can finally leave his brutal past behind.

BUT VIOLENCE ISN'T DONE WITH HIM

When murder shatters the tranquillity of his sleepy paradise, Happy realizes he has nowhere left to run. The question is, can he remember how to fight?

PRAISE FOR THE HAPPY DOLL SERIES

'I loved this book - it's quirky, edgy, charming, funny and serious, all in one. Very highly recommended' - Lee Child, author of the Jack Reacher series

'A stiff shot of timeless Hollywood noir, spiked with black humour and leaving a warm glow as it goes down' - Chris Brookmyre, author of Quite Ugly One Morning

'So fun and propulsive I didn't just read it in one sitting, I read it in what felt like a single breath' Lou Berney, author of the New York Times-bestselling November Road

Jonathan Ames is the author of eleven books including Wake Up, Sir!, The Extra Man and You Were Never Really Here, all published by Pushkin Press.

His thriller You Were Never Really Here was adapted for a major Hollywood film by Lynne Ramsay, starring Joaquin Phoenix.
