Never Admit to Beige (Macmillan New Writing)

Trigger Harvey has lost his job, his apartment, his friends, and his pants. Now, he wants his luck back. His search takes him halfway around the world to Australia’s Gold Coast. Somewhere, among the miles of neon, concrete, sun, and money, his luck lies in the hands of one Terry Smith. Now Trigg has to find him—and not even the Japanese mafia, kidnapping, or golf are going to dent his newfound resolve. In the end, maybe having his luck stolen was the luckiest thing that could have happened.
