    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The mind-expanding new thriller from the bestselling author of&&&160;The Sleepwalkers&&&160;and&&&160;The End of Mr. Y

    &&&160;

    He’s running for his life. And he’s running out of time.

    Jay has been hunted since he was twenty years old. A contract on his life has been traded like a commodity, rising and falling with Bitcoin. On the run once again, with no passport, and airmiles as his only currency, Jay will have to choose between love and survival,&&&160;and run for his life!

    The Runner&&&160;is a high concept literary thriller featuring high-finance, con-artists, the Book of Jonah, ultramarathons and how falling in love can change everything.

    Darkly funny, sexy, exciting, philosophical and thrilling,&&&160;The Runner&&&160;is the most gripping and intelligent novel you will read in 2026.
