Ryan Gattis: Safe, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

All this cash, it's trying to tell me, there's no way I get away with it. There's too much here.
The owners of the cash will come looking. They'll come looking hard.
2008. L. A. is a city in crisis: there are no jobs, no money and no houses. Rudy Reyes (a. k.a. Glasses) is a drug-runner turned double-agent who wants to go straight and Ricky Mendoza, Junior (a. k.a. Ghost), a master safe-cracker with terminal cancer who's got nothing left to lose.
When Ghost steals hundred of thousands of dollars from a safe owned by Glasses' boss, an L. A. drug-lord named Rooster, he risks sabotaging Glasses' deal with the DEA. As Rooster closes in on him, Glasses does whatever he can to keep his deal on track, putting his livelihood at risk, his freedom and his family.
From the acclaimed author of All Involved, Safe is a modern-day morality tale, a bold, twisting and heart-stopping thriller.
