Our hero in Magnus Mills mesmerizing new work is a five-year veteran of the Scheme: he knows the best routes  the easiest managers  the quickest ways in and out. Inevitably  trouble begins to brew. A woman arrives on the scene. Some workers develop delivery sidelines. And most disturbing of all  not all participants are in agreement.

Disagreement turns to argument  argument to debate  debate to outright schism. Soon the Flat-Dayers and Swervers have pushed the Scheme to the very brink of disaster...and readers to the edge of their chairs in delight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948581646389,"sku":"ByrdShop_031242163X","price":61.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780312421632.jpg?v=1770052516","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-scheme-for-full-employment-a-novel","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
