The Accident Man, by Tom Cain

In the Heathrow airport, between flights, this book was on display in paperback, at half-price. How can you go wrong with a throwaway novel at discount before boarding a nine hour flight?

The good news: it was a fine diversion. The bad news: it was completely appropriate to leave behind on the plane for the next desperate reader - there was no temptation at all to bring it home.
