Came a Hot Friday

Luck runs out for two bumbling con men when they arrive in a sleepy New Zealand country town in 1949. Their horse-racing scam is uncovered, but at the same time there's arson at the local billiard saloon - and the Tainuia Kid is watching it all. Came a Hot Friday is a rollicking comic adventure set in 1949 against a background of horse-racing, gambling, fast cars and loose women.
