Трогательная и одновременно смешная история Гарри Сильвера — человека, которому не везет. Казалось бы, чего ему не живется — все, о чем мечтает каждый, у него уже есть: хорошая работа, замечательная жена, прекрасный сын. Но только разрушив свое счастье собственными руками и оказавшись среди развалин, Гарри начинает задумываться о смысле существования.

Продолжение истории о неудачнике Гарри Сильвере, начатой в романе «Man and Boy, или Мужчина и мальчик». Гарри женится снова, так как убежден: мы все достойны получить еще один шанс в поисках любви, к которой мы так стремимся. Он хочет заново построить свою семью, но боится запутаться в паутине отношений с будущей и бывшей женой, сыном, приемной дочерью и «вдруг» постаревшей матерью. Все еще больше осложняется встречей с женщиной, о которой Гарри мечтал всю жизнь.

Harry Silver is settled and happy. But can it last? Life is good for Harry Silver. He has a beautiful wife, three wonderful children and a great job as producer of the cult radio show "A Clip Round the Ear." But Harry is about to turn forty and his ex-wife is back in town. Soon it could be time to kiss the good life goodbye… When Harry's fourteen-year-old son Pat moves out, Harry's perfect life seems to be falling apart. Into the chaos of Harry Silver's life stroll two old soldiers who fought alongside Harry's late father in The Battle of Monte Cassino in the spring of 1944. Will these two gallant old men help Harry to reclaim his son, his family, his wife and his life? And can they show Harry Silver what it really means to be a man?

On New Year’s Day, a wealthy family is found slaughtered inside their exclusive gated community in north London, their youngest child stolen away. The murder weapon – a gun for stunning cattle before they are butchered – leads Detective Max Wolfe to a dusty corner of Scotland Yard’s Black Museum devoted to a killer who thirty years ago was known as the Slaughter Man. But the Slaughter Man has done his time, and is now old and dying. Can he really be back in the game? And was the murder of a happy family a mindless killing spree, a grotesque homage by a copycat killer – or a contract hit designed to frame a dying man? All Max knows is that he needs to find the missing child and stop the killer before he destroys another innocent family – or finds his way to his own front door … Even the happiest of families have black, twisted secrets that someone is ready to kill for…
