      About This Book

      When Frank Thorpe, a deeply moral former undercover operative, sees a hard-charging art dealer knock down a Latino child at LAX airport, he decides to teach him a lesson. But Thorpe's plans get a little out of hand, and he becomes immersed in a criminal underworld peopled by a drug-dealing surfer with a social climbing wife, two mentally challenged goons with a penchant for violence, and a vicious Romanian named Vlad. The Wake-Up is an absolutely irresistible, outrageously comic thriller that starts off with a bang and never lets up.
