'Without glamorizing his subject, there’s a lyricism in the vernacular and street language that makes it hard not to be moved.'
GQ
'A thrilling heist novel with a big beating heart.'
Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train
An LA noir thriller full of twists and turns, a cat and mouse chase between two narrators and where nothing is quite what it seems.
Set in LA against the backdrop of the 2008 financial crash, this is the story of Rudy Reyes (aka Glasses), a gangster-turned-double-agent who wants out of the high-stakes high-risk criminal life, and Ricky Mendoza, Junior (aka Ghost), a DEA safe-cracker with terminal cancer who’s got nothing to lose.
When Ghost goes rogue and steals thousands of dollars from a safe that belongs to Rooster, an LA crime lord who happens to be Glasses’ boss, he endangers a deal Glasses had with a DEA official. As Ghost sets out to steal as much money as he can get his hands on – all with the plan to give it to those hit hardest by the crash – and Rooster gets ever closer to catching him, Glasses tries desperately to keep his plans on track.
Fast-paced and gritty, Safe is both a moving and human morality tale, and an utterly immersive and heart-stoppingly suspenseful thriller.
