Calvin's Contract

by David Fraser

When 16 year old Calvin Singer sees a police chase ending on an Auckland motorway and picks up a bag full of cash he has no idea what he has started. Running away with a lot of money is one thing; deciding what to do with it is something else altogether. Calvin’s life becomes increasingly complicated as he finds that he cannot be an ordinary teenager as well as a fugitive. When he tries to use the money to repair his mother’s relationship with her latest man he is drawn deeper into a tangled adult world he is not equipped to deal with. At the same time he is being hunted by the underworld enforcer who wants his money back and the detective who needs a witness.
