The Final Cut

ebook
This book is also available in THE BARBERSHOP SEVEN - the collected Barney Thomson novels. Searching for answers to his tortured, murder-filled existence, Barney Thomson is drawn to take a job in London, as personal barber to Thomas Bethlehem, the head of an upcoming and trendy marketing agency. Such is Barney's fate that, just as he arrives in the capital, a serial killer begins to run amok among the young, go-getting executives of Bethlehem's company. Suddenly, but entirely predictably, Barney once again finds himself in the middle of a multiple murder investigation. As Satan returns to haunt Barney and to steer him down his final, inevitable path, could it be that Bethlehem's latest client — a wise-cracking New Englander with an easy smile and a handy ability with a thunderbolt — is the man to provide the deliverance that has eluded Barney Thomson for so long? THE FINAL CUT is book 7 in the Barney Thomson series. Praise for THE LONG MIDNIGHT OF BARNEY THOMSON (book 1) "This chilling black comedy unfolds at dizzying speed... an impressive debut novel." -Sunday Mirror "The plot, Russian literature fans, is a modern spin on Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment. The bloody ending, movie buffs, is pure Reservoir Dogs." -The Mirror "This is pitch-black comedy spun from the finest writing. Fantastic plot, unforgettable scenes and plenty of twisted belly laughs." - New Woman Praise for THE BARBER SURGEON'S HAIRSHIRT (book 2): "A mad, macabre romp with surreal characters and cutting black humour."-The Sunday Mirror "Gloriously over the top, very bloody and very, very funny." -Daily Telegraph "A novel which is both genuinely silly and a fun read."- The Scotsman "A flawless follow-up to an impressive debut, this is extremely well-written, highly amusing and completely unpredictable in its outrageous plot twists and turns." -The List "Lindsay"s burlesque thrills offer no sex, no drugs, no desperation to be cool. Just straightforward adult story; fantastic plot, classic timing and gleeful delight in the grotesque. With more talent than Irvine Welsh could dream of, Lindsay has crafted a macabre masterpiece where content lives up to style." -What's On THE BARNEY THOMSON novels in order: #1 THE LONG MIDNIGHT OF BARNEY THOMSON #2 THE BARBER SURGEON'S HAIRSHIRT (aka THE CUTTING EDGE OF BARNEY THOMSON) #3 MURDERERS ANONYMOUS (aka A PRAYER FOR BARNEY THOMSON) #4 THE RESURRECTION OF BARNEY THOMSON (aka THE KING WAS IN HIS COUNTING HOUSE) #5 THE LAST FISH SUPPER #6 THE HAUNTING OF BARNEY THOMSON #7 THE FINAL CUT
