Shooting Sean by Colin Bateman
New novel from bestselling author of Divorcing Jack and starring the inimitable hero Dan Starkey. Dan Starkey gets caught up in the world of writing (he can handle that) terrorists (he’s been there before) and movie hype (more frightening than anything yet encountered) in a cracking adventure that takes him from Dublin to the Cannes Film Festival. And it’s not just bullets that Dan is dodging, when a smouldering romance threatens the frequently-rocky balance of his marriage to Patricia. This novel can be read entirely without reference to the other Starkey books, and may be Bateman’s best yet.

Roddy Doyle meets Carl Hiaasen' Independent on Sunday Of Wee Sweetie Mice and Men: 'Fast, furious, riotously funny, and at the end, never a dry eye in the house' Mail on Sunday Empire State: 'Bateman on epic form in gloriously over-the-top saga' Daily Telegraph
