Out of the reach of English law, Spain is a well known haven for criminals who skip abroad and assume other identities. On the Costa del Sol, professional safe-cracker Larry has struck it lucky. The gorgeous Suzy asks him to steal the diamonds from her husband Alex’s safe and run away with her to Rio. At the same time Alex also employs Larry to murder Suzy for her £100,000 life insurance policy. Larry decides to tell Suzy about her husband’s plans, and together they plot to steal the diamonds, murder Alex, and make off with the dividends from Alex’s similar insurance policy. Several twists add to the suspense and clarify Larry’s true identity, while revealing that Suzy and Alex are not what they seem in this exciting thriller from the author of Shock! and Edge of Darkness.
Characters (2M/1F):
Suzy (F, 30s): a strikingly attractive woman with a superb figure that, despite its slimness, is almost voluptuous, and is heightened by the elegantly sexy outfit she wears.
Larry (M, 30s): in his prime. Handsome, with a body he takes good care of, and a terrific tan that he works at – he makes sure that you see both. He likes to show off his even, white, teeth, in a kind of semi-tough, acquired grin. Larry is a lady killer who usually gets what or who he wants – he exudes a kind of arrogant confidence. Back in South London (home) he’d definitely be known as “Jack the Lad”. He’s intelligent, with a kind of animal cunning and his speech is peppered with Americanisms. You might take him to be a pulled-up-by-his-bootlaces disk-jockey, or a high transfer-fee footballer.
Alex (M, indeterminate age, possibly 35-45): need not be a particularly big man, but there is an air of latent strength, of power about him. He looks like a man who might have a violent temper.
