Description

Tired of red tape tying up his cut-price care homes in Thailand, failed union demagogue Arnie Ratledge takes to the high seas. Launching hugely cost effective care-home ships for the elderly, he cunningly taps into the fashion for green energy, and takes it one stage further: milking what little energy the old have left. And when they die, there's A Drop in the Ocean for each corpse. Even the fish are happy with the whole cheap-as-chips operation. With his trademark ground-breaking humour, Maurice Jones strips bare the madness at the heart of 21st century fads while giving political correctness a mighty shove towards the dustbin of history.

Author Biography:

Award-winning journalist, active pilot, self-educated since leaving school at 15, Maurice Jones edited the miners' union paper during the tumultuous 1984-85 coal strike. This is his second book in the Rat Skull trilogy, having turned pensioner novelist at 67. His first, Last Resort, won widespread acclaim in the world of showbiz, media and politics, and praise from the international media.
