Bombproof
Sami Macbeth is not a master criminal He’s not even a minor one. He’s not a jewel thief. He’s not a safe- cracker. He’s not an expert in explosives. Sami plays guitar and wants to be a rock god but keeps getting side-tracked by unforeseen circumstances.
Fifty-four hours ago Sami was released from prison. Thirty-sex hours ago he slept with the woman of his dreams at the Savoy. An hour ago his train blew up. Now he’s carrying a rucksack through London’s West End and has turned himself into the most wanted terrorist in the country.
Fast, funny, hip and violent, BOMBPROOF is a non-stop adventure full of unforgettable characters and a heart-warming hero – Sami Macbeth – a man with the uncanny ability to turn a desperate situation into a hopeless one.
Shatter
Sydney Morning Herald
'Thematically complex, artfully structured, beautifully written and observed, SHATTER confirms Robotham's place in the front row of crime.'
The Australian
'As pleasurably upsetting as anything I've read...Robotham's style inhabits the realm of ideas where writerly cadence, sociological consequence and, above all, eventful narrative, coalesce into wonderfully dense detailed novels of place and character. He is simply one of the most pleasing crime writers to read.'
The Night Ferry
Val McDermid
'THE NIGHT FERRY is all about the human heart -- heart-stopping, heart-breaking and heart-wrenching.'
Peter James
'It is more than Michael Robotham's characters that leap off the page; he writes in a voice with a haunting sense of soul that stays with you long after you have finished. He rightly deserves to be classed among the very best of British thriller writers.'
Australian Bookseller & Publisher
'Robotham’s books are relentlessly fast-paced and he has a gift for fleshing out the character of a likeable and multifaceted protagonist in the midst of a narrative that starts at a sprint from the first line and doesn’t flag until the last. If excellent characterisation, deft plotting and a light touch count for anything, Michael Robotham is a name that should be on all of our lips.'
Lost
Australian Bookseller & Publisher
'With the velocity and wit of an American thriller and the emotional complexity and characterisation of a British mystery, the author has captured the best of the genre. If Michael Robotham isn't a star already, he will be.
Carol George, Australian Women's Weekly
'An electrifying mystery from the author whose dazzling debut, THE SUSPECT', raised the bar for whodunits.'
The Suspect
The Times Magazine
'Popular fiction’s Next Big Thing'
Publishing News
'There are twists and turns in this plot enough to challenge most thriller readers . . . Gripping stuff'
The Australian
'Believable and authentic from the first sentence . . . Robotham doesn't put a foot wrong in his plotting, pace or inventiveness'
