Christie Malry is a simple person . It does not take him long to realize that he has not been born into money. So Christie places himself next to it by taking a job in a bank and it is there that he encounters the principle of Double-Entry terms: debit Christie for offence received, credit society for offence given. All accounts are to be settled in full and Christie exacts payment in his own dramatic fashion - with the most alarming consequences. [from the back cover]
