Description
The race is on. The stakes are high. Frankie James thought that his troubles were behind him. He's busy running his Soho Club, and his brother's finally out of jail. But he's stopped in his tracks when a postcard arrives from Mallorca. The card is signed off with a kiss, and it reminds him of his mother. The mother who's been missing for eight years, presumed dead . . . When the goddaughter of London's fiercest gang lord, Tommy Riley, goes missing in Ibiza, Tommy knows there's one man for the job. That man is Frankie James. It's now up to Frankie to find her and it's a race against time. Frankie must decide if he's willing to enter the criminal underworld he's tried so hard to escape from. Everything's at stake - his family, his career, his life. He can't afford to lose this time, but what does winning mean for him? With temptation at every turn, old habits die hard. Double-Kiss is the fast-paced, thrilling sequel to Framed, by snooker champion Ronnie O'Sullivan
Author Biography
Since turning professional in 1992, O'Sullivan has clocked up an incredible number of awards and trophies, including the UK Championship, the China Open, the Regal Championships, the Benson and Hedges Masters and the British Open. In January 2000 O'Sullivan won the Nations Cup for England, boasting the best record of any player, thirteen wins from fifteen frames played. Double Kiss is his second novel, following Framed. Ronnie is currently working on his third book in the Soho Nights series.
ReviewsLike O'Sullivan playing at his best, the book is tight, pacey and keeps you guessing. * The Big Issue (Framed) * Ronnie's first crime novel draws on his early years . . . a world of gangsters and bent coppers which he writes about with uncomfortable authenticity. * Choice (Framed) * Packed with intrigue, action, brutal villains and a beguiling hero, this is a cracking first novel delivered with all the sidespin and clever swerves one would expect from the king of the trick shots! * Lancashire Evening Post (Framed) * Running is a chaotic race through O'Sullivan's life, but this does little to dethrone him as the people's champion - it simply adds further to his legend. * Press Association on Running *
