Hiccup

This was a very different book and although I did enjoy it, it did seem like the main character just ran from one bottle to the next and sometimes ducked the bullets that were flying at his head. It started off well and I thought it was going to be interesting but then it just sort of drowned in the bottle, I understand the character was a drunk and that was the whole reason he was in the trouble he was but he just went from one rehab centre to the next with no investigating in between. It was well written and certainly gave you an insight into the troubles an alcoholic faces.
Russell Murray wakes up in bed with a beautiful young lady with no idea how he got there. Before he can find out the answers the question of who she was or how he came to end up with her, two armed gun men break down the door and start shooting. Russell barely makes it out the window alive, it seems his boss had given him a very important job to do if only he could remember what it was. And the goons with the guns aren't happy that he didn't get it done. After one to many drinks to help him forget he was the reason the girl was dead, Russell wakes up in a rehab centre and befriends a rich girl. When the goons track him there Russell and his new friend go on the run. Can they stay off the drink long enough to work out what they are after and more importantly where he left it? A key in his pocket is the only clue to the alcohol fuelled night but a key to what?
The narrator does a good job and uses his voice well to create the different characters.
