Bastard
is a darkly comic British crime thriller about justice, violence and what happens when one man decides to put the world straight...one beating at a time.
Meet our narrator. He's rich, bored, addicted to people-watching and unapologetically ruthless. When he starts targeting the worst offenders; the violent, the abusive, the corrupt, he goes too far and kills the wrong man. A prick in a suit with deadly connections. Drawn into a criminal web stretching from gang bosses to cartels to the corridors of power, he's forced into a brutal game where the only rule is survival.
Gritty, fast-paced and wickedly funny,
will appeal to fans of Lee Child, J.J. Connolly, and Guy Ritchie. Already reaching hundreds of readers in its first months, this debut novel introduces a bold new voice in contemporary crime fiction.
