This was the first Ross Thomas novel I read and thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope to read more. Reminded me much of Elmore Leonard. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
A tragic past traps a former Hollywood stuntman in a web of international intrigue--from "America's best storyteller" (The New York Times Book Review). Two pirates do battle on an old junk ship in Singapore Harbor. They leap nimbly from deck to rigging, crossing swords like fencing masters. And then one surprises the other, slicing a rope and sending the unfortunate pirate tumbling into the bay. This is how stuntman Angelo Sacchetti dies. Edward Cauthorne was his opponent, a fellow stuntman whose career died along with Sacchetti. He's selling used cars when two thugs approach him. They're emissaries from Sacchetti's godfather, a Mafia don. Sacchetti is alive after all--alive enough to be blackmailing the don--and they firmly request that Cauthorne find him. The search takes Cauthorne back to Singapore, to risk his own life for the sake of the man he thought he'd killed. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
