Smoked

Review

Smoke Dugan is on the run.      A bomb-maker by profession, he dropped out of sight because of a misunderstanding with his employers about an airplane crash and $2.5 million in cash. Unfortunately, they've found out where Smoke's living--a picturesque seaside city in Maine. And Denny Cruz, a highly paid assassin, is on his way from New York to collect him.      Smoke's girlfriend, Lola Bell, is unaware of his past. Sexy, smart, and tough, Lola's a weed that grew up through the cracks in an inner-city housing project. Her big eyes belie her secret weapon: she's spent a decade studying the martial arts. The tattoo on her shoulder reads girls kick ass. When Cruz decides to use Lola to get to Smoke, he has no idea what he's taking on.      A time bomb is ticking as Smoke, Lola, Cruz, and anyone unlucky enough to come into their orbit are caught up in a drama of abduction, car chases, and triple bluff, where escape or violent death look like the only options. But nothing turns out quite as anyone might expect . . .      Patrick Quinlan's fast-paced, edgy, and brilliantly original first novel introduces a cast of characters worthy of Tarantino in their sophistication and resourcefulness, in a stylish thriller that marks the debut of a stunning new talent.

We have no description for this book, sorry.

âThis is the stuffâ¦ Violent, pacy, stylish and funny.â - The Daily MirrorBook #2 in the Stolen Millions series.Smoke Dugan, one-time bomb-maker for the mob, is on the run. Thereâs nothing on the Caribbean island of St. Markâs but sun, sand and homegrown highs â making it the perfect place for Smoke to drop off the radar with the $2.5 million heâs taken from the mob. But it's not easy to keep a low profile when you've got your girlfriend, her best friend and a retired assassin in tow. Never mind that the price on your head is going to get some very bad people doing bad things to find you. Soon the scene is set for a game of cat and mouse amid the palm trees and on the high seas. Who will end up sleeping with the fish? âA great crime novel. Brilliant is the word.â - Independent on SundayâTightly plotted, confidently written and very hip.â
