Bait, Grist and Security Summary

Bait, Grist and Security by Mike Hodges

In `Bait , a slippery PR man, Mark Miles, is unaware he s being manipulated and dangled as bait by an investigative reporter until he s swallowed by a sadistic mindexpanding cult from America. In `Grist , the bestselling writer, Maxwell Grist, ruthlessly uses real people as fodder for his crime novels before finding himself living up to his name and becoming grist for his own murder. In `Security , an American movie star, unhappy with the film he s working on, refuses to leave his hotel for the studios, while in the corridor outside his luxury suite mayhem and murder take over.
