Jonasson, Jonas, 1961-
Hitman Anders and the meaning of it all : a novel / Jonas Jonasson ; translated from the Swedish by Rachel Willson-Broyles. - 299 pages ; 21 cm
"A brilliant satirical novel set in modern Sweden, a story of idealism and fanaticism, gangsters and entrepreneurs, sensationalism and spirituality, that explores the values that matter in contemporary life." -- Killer-for-hire Anders is fresh out of jail when he meets an atheist former vicar and a receptionist. Together the three come up with a plan to make them rich-- until Anders unexpectedly finds Jesus. Ander's conversion may be good for his soul, but it's not good for business! Now the vicar and the receptionist have to find a new plan, quick.
