SynopsisIn a gritty future dystopia, Turo is the world’s most lethal bounty hunter. This tough-as-nails mercenary survives on a toxic mix of booze, deadly narcotics, sexy women – and his gift for snuffing out human life.
His only friends are the quasi-dictator who runs the city, a local drug dealer, and the artificial intelligence system in his flying car.
And Turo has other big problems: He’s spent most of his life as an orphan with no memory of his father and only a silver chain and ring to remind him of the mother he briefly knew.
But when a deranged military commando from his family’s past returns to exact revenge on Turo and the city he calls home, this tortured soul must confront the dark secrets of his own history and the genetic engineering experiments responsible for his superhuman powers.
Can Turo stop this madman in time to save his city – and himself? Will he learn the dark secrets that shaped his desperate existence? Does he even care enough to try?
In his stunning debut novel, London writer Steven Loton redefines postmodern storytelling with his gift for exposing dark truths and human pain. This dystopian, cyberpunk, action packed thrilling sci-fi adventure of a novel will have you laughing out loud with great comedy value and witty lines. In the vein of masters like Philip K. Dick and Kurt Vonnegut, Loton weaves a white-knuckle tale of death, destruction… and the ultimate redeeming power of love and romance that can save us all.
