Mr. Nice by Howard Marks …


Hello …
As I wrote here …
I was reading "The Third Twin" by Ken Follet …
It was a very good book …
A little dragging at the beginning …
But once the characters are properly introduced …
The book starts rolling on … with enough gusto …
Good story telling … a bit predictable plot line …
However … an immensely enjoyable read …
Now that I've to stay indoors …
For extended periods of time … each day …
Due to this unrelenting damp weather …
I've picked up another book …
Its called Mr. Nice and is by Howard Marks …
This guy is amazing … used to smuggle cannabis …
Had forty-three aliases and eighty-nine phone lines …
And he owned twenty-five companies …
He had strong connections with …
MI6, the CIA, the IRA, and the Mafia …
He was busted and sentenced to 25 years …
The book was a best seller …
And the tag line promises we'll like him …
Lets see if we do … hehe …
Thaathi, thanks for lending me this book …
Laterx ...
