Hitman Sam: British light crime Kindle Edition

by Morgen Bailey (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.2 out of 5 stars 49 ratings

A trainee hitman, new adventure and love triangle.

Having been made redundant as a photocopier software designer, Sam Simpson is lured by a cryptic advert. As he learns it is for a trainee hitman, will he be tough enough to see the job through?

Even James Bond had to start somewhere and Sam, as his alias Josh Bradley, looks forward to enjoying James' lifestyle, although soon embroiled in a love triangle, Sam hadn't expected things to get so complicated so quickly.

"My favourite kind of hitman. Bailey had me chuckling and suspending all belief... Sam, he just won my heart."

"This book was FUN! Sam was a great character. The story is told in short chapters that kept the story moving. There is a large cast of intriguing characters and multiple threads, skilfully woven together. The perfect little book to brighten your afternoon. It will make you smile, it will make you laugh, and it will (almost) make you want to be a hitman ..." - Zooloo's Book Diary

    I had never heard of lad lit before, but found it is fun. Sam Simpson has a new, unusual job as a hitman. Sam is in for some danger, fun, and learning. This is a different genre than I was expecting, but was a fun ride.

    Amateur hit man or love sick fool? Can Sam survive love, lust and homicide? Can he avoid the police? Should he be asking more questions about who is training him and why they would bother training a nerd who wants to be Sean Connery?

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great read!

    On meeting Sam, I couldn’t help but like him immediately. He can be a bit dim but you can tell he is a genuine guy whose luck has been a bit down but all that seems to be changing. Not only is he now looking at a career as a hitman, his luck with the ladies seems to be changing also.

    There is an underlying dark humor throughout which I really enjoyed. In fact there is a lot to enjoy. I liked the characters as well as Hamish the dog that Sam ends up looking after for one of his neighbour’s. Whilst it may be classed as a lad lit novella, it certainly appealed to me and now having read what could possibly be my first book in this genre, I would certainly read more.

    Hitman Sam has a protagonist that the reader can’t help put get behind. Whilst I obviously don’t condone killing people, the story focuses more on Sam whilst training to the build up for his first kill and his stop, start friendship with Emma who works in the video shop. A story I enjoyed way more than I expected in a genre new to me. Was actually quite sad to get to the end as could easily have devoured more of Sam and his day to day life. Great read and would definitely recommend if you are looking for something light hearted and entertaining.

    Loved this crazy idea about being a hitman but the way he went on with his everyday life and getting a girl friend was brilliant. The story flowed well even though a lot was everyday things it wasn’t boring and kept you reading to see what he would do next. The twist at the end and the way everything all came together was brilliant. Great writing by a very talented author.
