An aspiring rockstar, fresh out of prison, gets trapped in a dangerous net of terrorists, criminals, and corruption in this kinetic thriller. “Take a macho but loveable hero, a few glam females, toss in a smoking gun and a pile of drugs, mix it up with one bent cop and one honest ex-cop with heaps of violence and a splash of sex and you have a darn good yarn. . . . Robotham really knows how to write.” —The Herald (South Africa) Sami Macbeth is not a master criminal. He’s not even a minor one. He’s not a jewel thief. He’s not a safe-cracker. He’s not an expert in explosives. Sami plays guitar and wants to be a rock god but keeps getting sidetracked by unforeseen circumstances. Fifty-four hours ago Sami was released from prison. Thirty-six hours ago, he slept with the woman of his dreams at the Savoy. An hour ago, his train blew up. Now he’s carrying a rucksack through London’s West End and has turned himself into the most wanted terrorist in the country. Fast, funny, hip and violent, Bombproof is a non-stop adventure full of unforgettable characters and a heartwarming hero—Sami Macbeth—a man with the uncanny ability to turn a desperate situation into a hopeless one. “This is a dark and gripping romp with a keen satirical edge. It is scary and fun.” —The Times (UK) |
