Two brothers and their friend stumble upon the wreckage of a plane–the pilot is dead and his duffle bag contains four million dollars in cash. In order to hide, keep, and share the fortune, these ordinary men all agree to a simple plan.
A hauntingly reasonable work, this struck a chord somewhere and kept me interested. The writing was well executed and the narrative never strayed, so although I couldn’t put myself in his shoes I could see him in them with perfect, painful clarity. One to read if you’re at all interested in the Humanities.
