Overview

A belly dancer with a stolen book believed to be the Kama Sutra on steroids is determined to outwit the Italian mob's deadliest hitman, the dwarf Nano Mortale, in a new madcap adventure from Jonathan Harries, author of Killing Harry Bones.

Fanny Packer, a voluptuous red-headed belly dancer, steals a mysterious codex rumored to make the Kama Sutra look like a children's story book from a mob family in Rome.

Back in New York City, journalist Charley Brooks and his too-perfect fiancee are already growing bored with one another.

When Charley catches a glimpse of the provocative Fanny in a magazine, he understands for the first time that there are no accidents and sets out on an unlikely quest to track her down.

Meanwhile, when the mobsters discover that the book, their most valuable family heirloom, is missing, the family's deadliest hitman and his bumbling handlers are dispatched to the States to recover the book—and eliminate Fanny.

With the help of a dominatrix and traveling on an old bookmobile-cum-brothel organized by the Dewey Decimal System, Fanny and Charley make a desperate run from Los Angeles to Worland, Wyoming, where they hope to unlock the codex one position at a time.

Don't miss this outrageous, laugh-out-loud, magical story of lust, love, and destiny.

About the Author

I grew up in Namibia, an extraordinarily beautiful and wild country where the desert meets the sea, with not a blade of grass in between. In my early teens we moved to South Africa where, after completing the perfunctory exercises necessary for entering adulthood, I began a career in advertising. While my love and fascination with wildlife began in Namibia, it grew into a passion in South Africa, and I spent every chance I got going to Botswana and other places where you could—and luckily still can—see animals in their natural habitat.

I moved to the US in 1986 because it didn’t seem as if apartheid would ever end, and I’ve lived here ever since. I retired just over a year ago as Chairman of FCB, a global advertising agency, and published my first book, Killing Harry Bones. Both my sons are passionate about animals; my elder son, Simon, moved back to South Africa for a few years to become a safari guide. My wife and I go on safari as often as possible and have had some incredible trips into the bush, bringing back memories rather than trophies.

Since retiring, I’ve developed my passion for writing and storytelling into a second career—in fact, it is more of a vocation. Wherever I am and whatever I’m doing, I try to get several hours of writing in every morning. The profits from all sales of my books are donated to animal charities. I hope they give you a laugh at the same time that they bring some awareness to the horrors of poaching and animal trafficking.
