Budapest/48

It sounds like easy money. Fly into Budapest. Handle the exchange in a straightforward kidnap for ransom case. Fly back home. 

Total time involved: 48 hours. 

But as private security operators Ryan Lock and Ty Johnson are about to find out, there is no such thing as easy money. 

Budapest/48 is the new novella (short novel) from bestselling thriller writer Sean Black.

"This series is ace. There are deservedly strong Lee Child comparisons as the author is also a Brit, his novels US-based, his character appealing, and his publisher the same." - Sarah Broadhurst, The Bookseller 

"This is a writer, and a hero, to watch." - Geoffrey Wansell, The Daily Mail 

"Black's style is supremely slick." - Jeremy Jehu, The Daily Telegraph 

"The pace of Lee Child, and the heart of Harlan Coben." - Joseph Finder, New York Times Bestseller (Paranoia, Buried Secrets) 

"The heir apparent to Lee Child" - Ken Bruen, Internationally Bestselling Author of The Guards 

'Ryan Lock (is) a protagonist tough enough to take on the Jacks of this world (that's Bauer and Reacher)' - Russel McLean 

'Black's star just keeps on rising.' - Evening Telegraph
