The Stretch [Paperback] Leather, Stephen

**The Stretch by Stephen Leather - Preloved Paperback**

Prison's meant to break you, but what if it makes you stronger? Stephen Leather's gritty thriller follows Terry Greene, doing hard time while his criminal empire crumbles outside. When his wife starts making moves that could destroy everything he's built, Terry must orchestrate the ultimate power play from behind bars. This isn't your typical crime fiction - it's a brutal examination of loyalty, betrayal, and survival in Britain's underworld.

Perfect for fans of hard-boiled crime thrillers who like their protagonists morally complicated and their plots twisting like a pretzel in a blender. Leather, master of the British crime genre with over 60 novels under his belt, serves up another page-turner that'll have you questioning who the real villains are.

This well-loved copy from Patina Paperbacks has stories of its own to tell - grab it before someone else does.
