Eric is a debt counsellor who is deeply in debt himself and in all sorts of trouble; this topical tale may very well have you reaching for your bank statement! The book's bleakness is lightened at times with some hilarious one liners as, lurching from the sublime to the ridiculous, this roller-coaster read takes you on a journey of mysterious caravans, body piercings and bingo. You'll certainly take an active dislike to at least one, if not all of the characters, but that won't stop you getting hooked as you are drawn along into Eric's bizarre world and towards the even crazier heart-stopping finale.
