Book Description
Bounty hunters Frinks and Sally are true professionals. So professional that no one even thought to hire them for what's possibly the most lucrative job of the decade: apprehend an elven blacksmith turned murderer. Unfortunately, as it turns out, the elf has been dead for weeks already, leaving the two of them in a shoddy tavern in the middle of nowhere, with neither fame nor fortune. It is only a small solace, then, when a drunk stranger offers to regale them with the full tale of what happened before their belated arrival. Or at least ... his version of it. Which is definitely, absolutely, unquestionably true.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Driving, wild and hilarious” (The Washington Post), here is the incredible “memoir” of the legendary actor, gambler, raconteur, and Saturday Night Live veteran.

BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.
