Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Jacob Meaney makes so little money as a translator that his girlfriend has given up on him. Then Eloise, an Australian digital marketer, appears out of the blue, offering him unheard of sums for a couple of weeks' work.
A private plane and helicopter take him to a showcase villa in Carinthia and all the luxury he could ever want. Here he meets the owner of the house Bondarenko. Unwillingly Jacob has become part of an organised crime conspiracy, held captive there by armed guards.
His task is to interpret between Hindi, Russian and English during Zoom calls with Nazim, an Indian criminal whose gang have taken over the manufacture and distribution network of the wonder fertility drug that Bondarenko has been selling on the internet. It becomes clear to Jacob that his employer is in far deeper and more dangerously than he realises. The gang's plan is to take over the entire operation by any means.
The villa has become a lethal gilded prison to Jacob and Vlada, the maid who's a trafficked worker. When Nazim finally strikes which side will Jacob take to survive?
Fast-moving, tense, glamorous and witty The Conspirators is G. W. Shaw's follow-up to Dead Rich ('A great book by a fabulous writer' Steve Cavanagh) and shows that he's a master of the gripping international thriller genre.

Recenzii
Completely unique & original. The Conspirators is slick, witty, gripping & packed with non-stop action. It's genre-defying which I LOVED & a brilliantly pieced-together puzzle that keeps you absolutely glued to the page. Stunning.
Reminiscent of a summer movie blockbuster. A Suspenseful, fast-paced and enjoyable thrill ride with unexpected twists and turns.
Tense and engrossing-a wild ride.
This is fast-moving, superior thriller-writing at its best.
Clever and persuasively written, this international thriller is great fun.
Fresh and darkly comic . . . like an Eric Ambler novel updated to the age of big pharma and cybercrime.
Some books should come with a warning: caution, addictive content. This new thriller by Brighton resident William Shaw (who also writes crime novels) is one such, sure to keep you avidly reading long after bedtime Tautly written and satisfyingly plotted, you will be gripped. Guaranteed.
