The Ghost Shipment (Aristotle, #2)

by Geoffrey Robert

Overview

When a young tourist dies in a surfing accident in Bali while high on cocaine, his billionaire father hires the Aristotle investigative team of Bec Corelli, Jay Duggan and Mike Bullard to track down the drug kingpin ultimately responsible.

 

Ped Garland, a maverick with a troubled past who is campaigning to become the Republican presidential candidate, captivates voters with his candid and unorthodox approach to politics, and bold plan to end the nation's drug nightmare.

 

With Garland's bid gaining momentum, the investigation leads the Aristotle team from the exotic resorts and nightclubs of Bali to the lawless backstreets of Colombia, tranquil neighborhoods of New Zealand, and rarefied halls of Washington's elite as they battle powerful adversaries determined to protect their secrets.

About the Author

Geoffrey Robert is a New Zealand novelist who writes as he has lived – choosing adventure over security, challenge over comfort, David over Goliath.

His books propel readers from the safety of their armchair or device into hair-raising missions to exotic and unfamiliar places with everyday characters pitted against powerful vested interests. Each story seasoned with values Aotearoa New Zealand and Kiwis are renowned for: independent, ethical, authentic, edgy. And fun.

Through his travels and work as a journalist, editor, political press secretary, communications director and volunteer, Geoffrey has witnessed first-hand the swelling disparities in wealth and influence at the root of many of the world’s problems. From the orderly streets of London to the chaotic bus stations of Kenya, the bountiful swagger of Sydney to the clogged alleys of India, the seductive dazzle of Times Square to the dirt floor poverty of Timor Leste.

As well as taking readers on virtual adventures, this stories explore some of the big issues of our time. His debut novel, The Alo Release, focused on the dangers of genetic modification and how public opinion can be manipulated by business and political elites. The second, Finding Fabi, highlights the chilling potential of multinational pharmaceutical companies in a post-Covid world. In his third novel, The Ghost Shipment (due for release in October 2023), justice, international drug trafficking and political intrigue collide in a high-stakes pursuit for power and redemption.

Between adventures, Geoffrey lives in Rangiora, New Zealand, with his wife Sue and their feisty Border Terrier, Harvey.
