Product Description

Book Description

The long awaited follow up to Smalltime Chris Small has been lying low for seven years, keeping his nose clean after a previous entanglement with the police.

Then one day he meets Edie, a waitress with a talent for playing blackjack. Thinking he might be on to a good thing, Chris agrees to become her playing partner, and together they hatch a plan to outwit London's casinos. But he doesn't know that a shadow from his past is looking for him - with the intention of maybe breaking a few limbs.

In this follow-up to the acclaimed SMALLTIME Jerry Raine again takes us into the world of ordinary people, who use extraordinary means to break free from the shackles of their mundane lives.



From the Publisher

Jerry Raine writes with a deceptive simplicity about ordinary people engaged in ordinary lives. Inevitably things start to go wrong. Don't expect big shoot-outs or international spy intrigues in Jerry Raine's novels, just characters you know and believe and locations that are invariably suburban high streets. Don't get the idea that Small Change is a small novel; far from it. He has the power to hook from the very first chapter. An enjoyable and worthwhile novel that's also great entertainment. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too Small, 29 Aug 2003
By Jimmy Sclaff "radletteer" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
Probably not as good as it thinks it is.
Its an easy, quick read but somehow you hope for more.
Focuses on ordinary Joe, Chris Small who looks like George Clooney and gets taken for 29 whereas he is 39.
He teams up with card-counter Edie and her American boyfriend Brad to try to beat Londons Casinos. The sub plot is a couple of heavies from his past trying to do him serious damage.
Brad gets killed by accident instead of Chris. Edie is devastated but Chris does not seem too bothered. Kind of puts you off the central character.
I feel that Leslie Thomas does this ordinary people stuff better. Yes, thats Leslie Thomas.
