About this product

Product Information

MAIL ON SUNDAY THRILLER OF THE MONTH S O PAULO, 20 MARCH 2016 A campaign for the impeachment of President Dilma Rousseff is in full swing, yet 100,000 people take to Avenida Paulista in S o Paulo in her support. On the same day, a young man from a wealthy family is murdered. Detective Mario Leme discovers the body. Two Military Policemen confront him. They strongarm him into the back of an SUV. Set against the backdrop of the biggest political corruption scandal in Brazilian history, Playboy is the story of Leme's attempt to clear his name, and find the young man's killer. Leme's investigation runs right through S o Paulo society, from the bottom, to the very top and has implications far beyond. And the fight to prove his innocence might just cost Leme his life. A stylish, taut, and atmospheric novel in the hardboiled tradition of American noir, Playboy is a thrilling examination of the seething, violent street life of S o Paulo and the political convulsions of contemporary Brazil.

Reviews
'Thomas's fine series offers a wonderfully vivid introduction to a society in violent, vibrant flux.', "As vibrant, colourful and complex as South America's largest city" --Myles McWeeney, Irish Independent, "With its feverish energy, opulent nightlife, culture and chaos, the Brazilian megalopolis is a perfect setting for Joe Thomas's crime thrillers" --Jane Dunford, Guardian, "Great crime fiction hinges on a sense of place, and Thomas proves an adroit guide to a city that has developed at dizzying speed" -- GQ, "Paradise City is a gripping read. This fast-paced and darkly atmospheric novel introduces Joe Thomas as a new and distinct voice in crime fiction of the city" --Susanna Jones, author of The Earthquake Bird, "I felt my hackles rise on more than one occasion. [...] Thomas consistently exposes the naked truth behind the power and oppression of the more vulnerable in society. [...] powerful and thought provoking... The weighty social issues of the book are more than balanced with the superb characterisation... [ Gringa is] a great read for those who like their crime on the darker side of the tracks, and dare I say it, even better than the debut [ Paradise City ]. Highly recommended" --Raven Crime Reads

I will not be buying from this seller again. Ad description "very good". Seller did not package and ship hardcover book with the precautions as I expected. As a result, the book arrived damaged.

Had to repurchase the book because the first one arrived badly damaged during transit. I contacted seller 3 times with no response but went ahead and recorder. Seller finally replied after I repurchased the second copy thanking me for my order. So had to buy this book twice and pay shipping twice. Second order arrived in good shape but packing still thin.
