You Don't Have To Be Evil To Work Here, But It Helps

ReviewPraise for IN YOUR DREAMS: 'Wacky humour bubbles through the polished narrative ... Holt doesn't skimp on the flashes of brilliance' SFX Praise for Tom Holt: 'Uniquely twisted ... cracking gags' Rob Grant, THE GUARDIAN, 'Frantically wacky and wilfully confusing ... gratifyingly clever and very amusing' MAIL ON SUNDAY, 'Frothy, fast and funny' SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY, 'Dazzling' TIME OUT Product DescriptionColin Hollinghead is a young man going nowhere fast. Working for his dad might have seemed like a good idea at the time, but starting at the bottom in the widget-making industry has, predictably, lost its appeal. And now the business is in trouble. At least his father has a plan to turn things around—a new work force that will improve profit margins and secure the company’s future for all eternity. The deal looks great on paper, but they do say that the devil is in the details—and the arch fiend definitely seems to be involved in some capacity. Colin needs help. Perhaps his new friend from J.W. Wells & Co. (Practical and Effective Magicians, Sorcerers and Supernatural Consultants) can help...Sparkling with wit and oozing charm, Tom Holt’s new comic caper proves once and for all that going to work can actually be hell.

EDITORIAL REVIEW: ** Hellboy, a bloodred, cloven-hoofed demon raised by the United States government, is a top field agent for the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense. He questions the unknown -- then beats it into submission. ** Religious artifacts from every faith are disappearing without a trace.

Now only Hellboy and his colleagues stand between a vulnerable humanity and an evil, vengeful *god*....

His lewd demands are the ransom he requires for the safe return of their kidnapped children. Laura, a gently-bred southern socialite, must approach a stranger in a bar, lead him to a motel room and have sex with him knowing there’s a camera concealed in the television recording everything. Detective Kel Vain comes to Laura Wyndham’s rescue when her daughter is snatched. He becomes the stranger this single mom must proposition and be videotaped with. It is a sexual episode unlike anything either could ever have imagined. The women The Voyeur targets are single mothers devoted to their children, with nowhere to turn when they discover that their child is missing and that he has them. Three men, in either the right place or the wrong place, are alerted to their plight and come to their rescue. By doing so, their lives are altered forever. Kel, Caison and Rand, strong men of good character, get much more than they bargained for when they step in to help three desperate women. As Kel spends his days trying to capture the demented killer, his nights are tortured by thoughts of the proper society woman that he made the most incredible love to.
