Gone Bamboo
Anthony Bourdain
Available as Paperback, eBook
From the bestselling author of Kitchen Confidential comes another sensational thriller
Welcome to the retirement home of Henry and Frances, ex-New Yorkers and professional assassins: a luxury hotel suite in an idyllic, tequila-drenched Caribbean hideaway.
It’s supposed to be all cocktails and sex on the beach. But when a job icing a Mafioso godfather goes awry, trouble hits paradise … in the form of a cross-dressing capo, a debauched Irish hard man and a slew of incompetent but vicious US marshals.
“A caper of murder and mayhem that reads like Carl Hiaasen on holiday with Elmore Leonard and goes out with a bang like a tequila slammer”
