Gone Bamboo
From the bestselling author of Kitchen Confidential comes another sensational thriller.
Welcome to the retirement home of Henry and Frances, ex-New Yorkers and professional assassins: a luxury hotel suite in an idyllic, tequila-drenched Caribbean hideaway.
It's supposed to be all cocktails and sex on the beach. But when a job icing a Mafioso godfather goes awry, trouble hits paradise... in the form of a cross-dressing capo, a debauched Irish hard man and a slew of incompetent but vicious US marshals.
Gone Bamboo by Anthony Bourdain invites you into a chaotic, sun-soaked world where danger lurks beneath every umbrella drink. Join this whirlwind of mischief and mayhem in a tropical setting where the unexpected is just a cocktail away.
