07.09: Roger Hobbs
2015-06-16 23:04:39| Powells Books Events Calendar
Vanishing Games (Knopf) is the gritty, riveting sequel to Roger Hobbs's Ghostman. It's just before dawn on the South China Sea when three experienced pirates open fire on a small smuggling yacht. Their target: a bag of uncut sapphires worth millions. But when one of them stumbles across an enormous treasure that wasn't on the manifest, everything goes sideways. Within minutes two of them are dead, leaving the third, a cold-blooded psychopath, to claim both the sapphires and the mysterious windfall for himself. His boss, Angela, isn't about to let that happen. She calls in a favor from her onetime protégé: a fixer sometimes known as Jack, or more often as simply the Ghostman. As soon as Jack's off the plane, they're back together again, facing down a crime boss and a conspiracy bigger than anything they've ever encountered. Their partnership is at the very heart of a novel that will cement Hobbs's status as one of our most talented crime writers.
