Work Description
'A nasty, original, murderously funny entertainment.' Independent Dennis and Karen lead a nice life in North Oxford until the day one of their dinner guests seduces Karen in the kitchen, setting in motion a chain of events which will destroy the thin veneer of their respectability and lead to ruthless murder. Dirty Tricks is a gripping and brilliant thriller set in contemporary Oxford, an unputdownable story in which the conventions of sex and violence have never been more satisfyingly explored.
