A Late-night Gambling Session Ends In A Bet For Richard Gaunt: Can He Walk To Oxford By Lunchtime The Next Day? Gaunt Sets Off, And As Morning Breaks And The Dreaming Spires Near, His Evening's Winnings Look Set To Double. But When Men In A Jeep Reverse Into Him, Scooping Him Off The Roadside, Gaunt's Life Takes A Very Strange Turn. Taken To A Country House, He Is Kept Hostage By A Man With Impeccable Manners, Mr Khan Who Makes Him An Unusual Offer - Ten Thousand Pounds In Return For A 'green Card' Marriage To A Woman Called Adeena. Traumatised By A Tour Of Duty In Iraq, Gaunt Has A Cavalier Attitude To Life And Feels He Has Nothing To Lose. By Paul Torday.
