About This Month’s Featured Audio

What CAN’T House‘s Hugh Laurie do? He acts, he plays guitar and piano, and it turns out he also can write witty and edgy thrillers.

Simon Prebble, who also appears to be able to narrate just about anything, delivers an international cast of characters as well as well-timed and intoned wry humor.

The plot: Cold-blooded murder just isn’t Thomas Lang’s cup of tea. Offered a bundle to assassinate an American industrialist, he opts to warn the intended victim instead—a good deed that soon takes a bad turn. Quicker than he can down a shot of his favorite whiskey, Lang is bashing heads with a Buddha statue, matching wits with evil billionaires, and putting his life (among other things) in the hands of a bevy of femme fatales.

Up against rogue CIA agents, wannabe terrorists, and an arms dealer looking to make a high-tech killing, Lang’s out to save the leggy lady he has come to love . . . and prevent an international bloodbath to boot.

“Fast, topical, wry, suspenseful, hilarious, witty, surprising, ridiculous and pretty wonderful. And you don’t need a permit to buy it.”
—The Washington Post Book World

“A first-rate thriller . . . an awesome entertainment machine.”
—Cleveland Plain Dealer

“[A] ripping spoof of the spy genre.”
—Vanity Fair
