He bought his wife, Georgie, helicopter flying lessons for Christmas, but now he fears he's enabled her to fly beyond his reach.

How can he remove his rival, not arouse his wife's suspicion - and not leave the faintest trace?

Great plot, nice build up of tension without giving away the great ending. The main character, warped as he is, is entirely believable. There are some very witty observations and comments embedded in the story which made it even more enjoyable - mark, Amazon.com.
What a tangled web we weave...Mr Furness has done it again in this dark tale of infidelity, revenge and twisted violence with a totally unexpected finale. Very satisfying!! - Kingsley, Amazon.com
As deliciously loathsome as Adam Riley is, I did feel a momentary twinge of compassion at the surprise ending to this superbly crafted tale - A. Deans, Amazon.com
