Product Description
Four bridge novellas which parody works by four best-selling novelists: "The Bridgefather", after Mario Puzo's "The Godfather"; "Contract for Murder" after Agatha Christie's "Cards on the Table"; "Harlett O'Scara" after "Gone with the Wind"; and "The Club", after "The Firm" by John Grisham.

Reader Reviews
Like all the books from the Kings, "Contract Killers" is brilliant stuff. British humor at its best. I think this one it's my favorite of all their books. Drop-dead funny, and stuffed with kinds of delicious things. They're presented in a low key throw-away style -- read it carefully or you'll miss them. I won't give any examples here; do yourself a favor and read it for yourself.
