Inhaltsangabe

'Paddy rushed over, closing the distance in no time at all; her face was ashen, the vivacious beauty from a moment before a distant memory. Sweat covered her face and he could see patches of moisture seeping through her shirt. Paddy checked for a pulse; her heartbeat was faint. He held her tightly for an age, the life vanishing from her body, him trying to hold it in as he squeezed her, and then, in the distance, he heard the sounds so familiar to Ascension House: the sirens approached, belatedly.'

Shortly after being drugged moments before a crucial cup match, the unexplained death of an old leaves too many questions to just be a coincidence for Scottish footballing hero, Paddy McAlpin. Frustrated with the slow police response, he decides to take action and find out who is targeting him.

Setting off on a perilous journey across Scotland and Europe, he finds out far more than he anticipated. Forced to truly reflect on himself, he comes to the realisation that there is more to his life than his own whims and wishes. Being thrown into one dangerous situation after another, Paddy has to draw on all his strength and discipline to get out alive. But to do more than just survive, to make things right, he needs to get back to his team and those that depend on him before it is too late.

Combining the emergence of a true hero with some tender and thoughtful exchanges between characters troubled by real-life afflictions, A Cloud Can Weigh a Million Pounds is a fast-paced, thrilling and humorous adventure filled with exciting action and suspense that is perfect for crime and detective lovers.
