Coke on the Rocks
Coke on the Rocks is a powerful drama set in sunny Spain, about a group of expatriates struggling to live a normal life on the Costa del Sol. But it seems impossible for them not to get drawn into the insidious underworld of criminal activity. This book has terrific pace and is a wonderful example of fiction enhanced by fact. It is written in a way as to entertain as well as inform, and is very funny in parts due to the colourful characters whose lives we follow as they evolve and grow. Drug smuggling is on the increase, and the cocaine consumption in Spain is higher than anywhere else in Europe. Prostitution and promiscuity are two more examples of the darker side of life, hidden behind the seductive high life that is advertised in the brochures and the media. Some of the scenes in this novel will shock and may seem unbelievable - but trust me - there is far more fact than fiction in Coke on the Rocks. This book is not only a must for all expatriates but also a warning to anyone in the U.K. who is thinking about moving to Spain. The Costa is a fabulous place to live - but only if you are aware of the pitfalls. Before you buy your dream villa you really must read Coke on the Rocks.
Blood Sport
Travelling home from London after dancing the Rite of Spring in Trafalgar Square with Sister Winifrede, Jack (nicknamed Jane) Austin and Mandy have a phone conversation with Jack's recently discovered son, Angie. Like his father before him, Angie is viewed as inept (D.C.I. Jack Austin is reputed to have never solved a crime). However, in MI5, Jack Austin is a clever bonce analyst, but that is a secret, naturally. So when Angie is appointed lead investigator into council planning decisions, it is all seen as a marvellous and most amusing side show, while the corporations and an organisation called Hegemon plunder the coastal resources of Portsmouth in the UK. However, Angie has inherited his dad’s analytical genes, and begins to reveal the undercurrents of conspiracy. But could he be the surreal defender of democracy, just as his father had been? A comedic but serious tale, 'Blood Sport' is the third book in Pete Adams's DaDa Detective Agency series.
