About the Book
“Riviera Revenge” picks up where “Riviera Terminus” left off, but nearly eight years later. The world has changed and another major geopolitical event is imminent, the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The lives of Lucas, George, Nathalie, Amra, and Jérôme are linked already through their traumatic clash with the maniacal Vuk Racik whom they managed to kill, and therefore indirectly to his twin brother Krazicek. The build up to the Iraqi war sets the actors in motion, provoking intersections in their respective time and space which might not otherwise have occurred. It will not be long before they end up breathing down each other’s necks, Krazicek bent on revenge for his brother’s death, Lucas on another money laundering expedition which takes him to Costa Rica. Violence, unexpected infidelity and mayhem ensue.
