Lightning on the Sun

by RobertBingham (Author)

Synopsis

Ashers is in trouble. He's stuck out in Phnom Penh, the work has dried up, and he's at the end of his spiritual and financial tether. But top-grade heroin is wonderfully cheap in this lawless part of the world.So with funds borrowed from the loan-sharking, massage parlour owner Mr Hawk and with the aid of journalist and 'citizen' Reese as an unwitting mule, Asher plans to move some weight to New York, where demand will happily exceed supply.His partner in this scam is Julie, an ex-lover, still living in New York, but when Julie decides to improvise, the carefully worked-out plans swiftly and dangerously unravel.Lightning on the Sun is a brilliant debut novel that combines the fast-paced suspense of a thriller with the moral resonance and exotic setting of one of Graham Greene's classic works.
