Westlake delivers a masterpiece with this brilliant, laser-sharp tale of the deadly consequences of corporate downsizing.Burke Devore is a middle-aged manager at a paper company when the cost-cutting ax falls, and he is laid off. Eighteen months later and still unemployed, he puts a new spin on his job search -- with agonizing care, Devore finds the seven men in the surrounding area who could take the job that rightfully should be his, and systematically kills them. Transforming himself from mild-mannered middle manager to ruthless murderer, he discovers skills ne never knew ne had -- and that come to him far too easily.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52339521257760,"sku":"USED0892965878","price":27.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/610y3BVikDL_b27a9b5c-3713-4634-ad9c-2c5d67e03012.jpg?v=1789119087","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-ax-0892965878-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
