**'Russell Hoban's imagination knows no bounds ... darkly funny and profound'** _**The Times**  
_  
_'You want to buy my death for a million pounds!'_ Piccadilly Circus tube station is an unlikely location for a pact with the Devil, but this is where Jonathan Fitch first meets Mr Rinyo-Clacton. Devastated after his girlfriend Serafina has left him, Jonathan agrees that this mysterious stranger will pay him a million pounds for a year, if he agrees to die at the end of it. What could possibly go wrong?

'A poignant and engaging fable of ownership and surrender' Philip Hensher, _Mail on Sunday  
_  
'Nothing is accidental or optional in this jewelled clockwork egg of a book ... Hoban is a hugely skilled, moving and endlessly entertaining writer' _The Times Literary Supplement_
