“She’s the one to die for”
BLURB
Zenka is a seductive Hungarian
pole-dancer with a stubborn streak. When London mob boss, Jack Murray, saves
her life she vows to become his guardian angel – whether he likes it or not.
“How can you be my guardian
angel,” Jack scoffed. “You’re only five foot two.”
Zenka shrugged, “So vat? I am
small, but a grenade is also small.”
Jack receives a letter saying he
has a son, Nicholas. Nicholas is a wimp, bullied by his flatmate, pussy-whipped
by his girlfriend and terrorised by his elderly patients.
Jack is delighted to be a dad,
but he has to tread carefully. People are out to harm him and those close to
him. Can he use his wealth, wiles and tough-guy contacts to make a man out of
this mouse – before his enemies turn him into mincemeat?
Zenka takes charge. She’s going
to “bring out the gorilla” in Nicholas. And she succeeds!
Nicholas transforms from pussycat
to mad dog, falls in love with Zenka, and finds out exactly where the bodies
are buried – because he buries them. He’s learning fast that sometimes you have
to kill … or be killed.
As family ties become more
disturbing, questions have to be asked:
How do you tell a mob boss you
don’t want to be his son?
And is Zenka really who she says
she is?
***
ZENKA is a black
comedy/crime thriller/romance set in gangland London in the weeks leading up to
Christmas.

Praise for ZENKA: “ZENKA is top of my list for best
fiction this year. If Tina Fey and Simon Pegg got together to write a dark and
hilarious mobster story with a happy ending, ZENKA would be the result!” -Lauren
