From missing scientists to media scandals, Brookmyre delivers another sharp-witted, high-stakes thriller.
When an oceanic research crew vanishes in the Pacific along with their mini-submarine, it barely makes headlines. But at a chaotic Los Angeles rally, sparks fly between evangelical zealots and a film convention celebrating questionable "artistic" endeavors. The cops brace for trouble, but they weren’t counting on a Glaswegian photographer with a razor-sharp tongue and a knack for stirring the pot—or a terrorist with a chilling plan involving Semtex and plutonium.
Christopher Brookmyre masterfully skewers the hypocrisies of modern society in Boiling a Frog, a biting satire wrapped in an explosive crime thriller. Darkly humorous, audaciously bold, and brilliantly plotted, this is a must-read for fans of smart, irreverent fiction. Brace yourself for an unforgettable ride.
