Lady Laura (not her long name) is a glamorous international art dealer who can handle a gun, a sword and, in fact, any kind of weapon. She cons and is conned, shoots and is shot at as she fearlessly seeks the one who is targeting her. Ruthlessly, she pursues her enemy, wiping out anyone who gets in her way with a nod to Twiggy, Warhol and all the other icons of the time who hover in the background of her life among the rich and famous. There are many twists and turns as the reader gasps breathless unable to put the book down. At times you laugh out loud shouting yes, yes, yes as, once more Lady Laura extricates herself from a seemingly impossible situation. Shes unputdownable - like the book.Compelling, assured and darkly satisfyingNow heres a novel that churns with contradictions. Compelling, assured and darkly satisfying, Code 17 thrills and chills. Its deeply dislikeable characters have exquisitely addictive redeeming factors that keep us coming back for more. The plot shocks and amazes on every page. Its unexpected format and terrifying subject matter force the reader to ask questions of himself: wouldnt we behave similarly, in such situations, if only we could get away with it? Code 17 is set primarily in Swinging-Sixties London, plunders the intriguing worlds of fine art and forgery, aristocracy and auction houses, and drops names. Twiggy, John and Yoko, Warhol and the Velvet Underground are all here. The sex is zipless, the crime ruthless, and its every man, woman and murderer for himself. Kill or be killed. Read this novel, but notez bien: it will turn your stomach even as it curdles your heart. Its the size of it.Smashing!!!Im a child of the 60s and fondly remember all the great TV series of the time: The Man from Uncle, The Girl from Uncle (perhaps a little more fondly. . . swoon), Department S, The Persuaders and of course The Avengers. Beautiful girls running around in catsuits shooting people and karate chopping people is all okay by me. This book has it all . . . Go-Go boots, Twiggy, Venus in Furs, Jensen FFs . . . smashing!!!...4773148Code 17.2143143https://www.gandhi.com.mx/code-17-2-9798227428592/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4588336/image.jpg?v=638555466112000000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249798227428592_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9798227428592_Praise for Code 17A wild and witty thrillerSet in London in the swinging sixties with a brief whizz over to New York and back, this is a thrilling, action-packed page-turner.
