12 Step Fandango
|
Martin Brock, anti-hero of Chris Haslam's hilarious novel 12 Step Fandango, is the first worthy successor to Eric Ambler's Arthur Abdel Simpson. Like Simpson, Brock is a low-down dirty hustler with few friends and serious enemies. Unlike Simpson, Brock manages to be cool, coming across like a wired Johnny Depp as his fragile little cocaine-based lifestyle explodes across the gorgeous, sun-baked Andalusian countryside.Template:Book-stub
