Beschreibung
Felix Hart, a wine buyer at the top of his game, finds himself compromised by a ruthless, multi-national drinks corporation. Forced to participate in a high-profile, corrupt wine competition, Hart is drawn into a terrifying game of cat-and-mouse, pursued by blackmailers, assassins and organic wine fanatics. The action moves from the Byzantine intrigue of the Minstrels of Wine to France's most glamorous chateaux, Hart relying on his quick wits, fine palate and a touch of muscle to stay ahead of his enemies. But he meets his match in Lily Tremaine, a beautiful and passionate sommelier, who disrupts his easy, pleasure-seeking life and turns his world upside down.
Brut Force is the second Felix Hart novel and the sequel to Corkscrew.

"...incredibly entertaining, lively, fun, and one of the best fiction books I've read in a very long time."
Miquel Hudin

"...a humour and swagger that combines elements of Wodehouse and MacDonald Fraser..."
Nick Breeze, Secret [...]

''It's an insane novel. It's clever ... and brilliantly conceived."

Über den Autor
Peter Stafford-Bow was born into a drinking family in the north of England in the late twentieth century. A precocious, self-taught imbiber, he dropped out of university to pursue a career in alcohol. After managing several downmarket London wine merchants, he became a supermarket buyer, a role which kindled his life-long love of food, other people's hospitality, and general gadding about. After periods living in East Asia and South Africa, Stafford-Bow returned to the UK to pursue a literary career. He has written five novels in the successful Felix Hart series; Corkscrew, Brut Force, Firing Blancs, Eastern Promise and Black Odesa. He lives in London with a wealthy heiress, an extensive wine collection and his pet ferrets, Brett and Corky.
