AMERICAN BLOOD - NZ author's novel picked up for a major motion picture


AMERICAN BLOOD
Ben Sanders
Allen & Unwin - $32.99
The brilliant crime thriller by New Zealander Ben Sanders, making waves in the States after it was picked up for a major motion picture…

“This novel has it all—great characters that are all too-real, switch-blade sharp writing,
dialogue that would bring a smile to Elmore Leonard's face and
a plot that grabs a reader by the collar, squeezes hard and never lets go.
American Blood is a first-rate, first-class, top-tier thriller and Ben Sanders hits it far and deep.”
Lorenzo Carcaterra, New York Times bestselling author of Sleepers and The Wolf

American Blood is a lean, mean power-packed novel.
Ben Sanders has set the new standard for gritty, action packed thrillers.”
Victor Gischler, Edgar Award nominated author of Gun Monkeys

“For lovers of Jack Reacher and Jason Bourne there is a new gun in town - an noble loner called Marshall Grade with a blazing gun and burning desire to right wrongs.
Whatever happens, I want him on my side.”

Michael Robotham
