A Beginner's Guide To Breaking and Entering
ISBN: 9781529152807
Description
My name is Al. I live in wealthy people's second homes while their real owners are away. I don’t rob them, I don’t damage anything… I’m more an unofficial house-sitter than an actual criminal. Life is good. Or it was - until last night, when my friends and I broke into the wrong place, on the wrong day, and someone wound up dead.

Andrew Hunter Murray’s third novel is an amusing yet insightful tale that follows Al, a self-described interloper, as his life turns chaotic and everything starts to go wrong.
The character is a great creation and tells the story with humour in a really easy to read narrative and totally believable loss of control.
For the most part, it’s a much more light hearted tale than the author’s first two books, but as it goes on there is a varied undercurrent of societal commentary that bounces through the cracks.
I really enjoyed reading this, and look forward to more from this storyteller.
