Since the Layoffs

ebook
This “dark, satirical comedy [is] written with the deadpan humor Levison used so well in his first book, A Working Stiff’s Manifesto” (USA Today).
 
Jake Skowran has been laid off from his job as a factory supervisor. Fortunately, he’s been offered other work. Unfortunately, it is as a hired killer.
 
Beset by creditors and filled with fury over his situation, Jake decides he has little choice except to take it. He is going to carve off a piece of the economy or die trying . . .
 
“Like Donald Westlake in The Ax, about an insurance executive turned hit man, Levison brings a burning rage to this accomplished debut novel.” —Booklist
 
“[A] black comedy of morals cracking in a lousy economy.” —The New York Times Book Review
