Lunch with the Generals

Description

Celebrating 10 years of Lunch with Derek Hansen - a new edition of his bestselling first Lunch novel. Ramon, self-styled master storyteller, has steered his listeners down a sinister path littered with love and betrayal, secret police and death squads. But as the Argentinian's tale nears its startling conclusion, his audience is struck with horror at the possibility that Ramon's clever invention is nothing more than the cunningly disguised chronicle of his own shadowy past. Is Ramon a gifted artist of the imagination or the perpetrator of a terrible act of revenge that defies all forgiveness? 'Hansen is a great novelist. Only the bravest and most confident writer could grant his characters such intelligence and insight and still remain in command' - West Australian.

Derek Hansen was born in England, raised in New Zealand and now lives in Australia. He began writing novels at the conclusion of a long and successful career in advertising. His first novel, LUNCH WITH THE GENERALS, was an immediate bestseller and provided all the encouragement he needed to continue. His books have been published in the UK, Europe and the USA. Derek is the author of eight novels and three collections of short stories. He is married with two grown-up children, and divides his time between his homes in Sydney and the Sunshine Coast.
