When Society throws you to the wolves - who can YOU turn to?
Try the trio from Firefly Electrics!
Meet the Aussie Avengers: a new breed of Public Protectors...
Artful avengers, dangerous subversives, lovely young men. Lennie and Joe - and their cockatoo, Rawcus - have heard it all. It's all true.
Suburban Sydney electricians by day, they fight crime in the shadows of the city; crime the establishment can't touch, won't touch, or gives a sly nod to.
Lennie calls it rewiring society. Joe reckons they're simply fixing bad people. Rawcus just wants a cold beer after a hard day on the power grid.
Now they're wanted for Crimes against Crime.
Justice Machine is Book #1 of the Firefly Electrics Series of dark comedy crime thrillers.
In Justice Machine, Lennie and Joe thank their lucky stars when they are fishing at dawn on a city wharf and a small fortune falls from the sky into their laps during a cargo-loading accident. They escape without being ID'd, and know exactly how to distribute the windfall. But have their stars been knocked out of alignment?
When Lennie's ex-parole officer, Trixi Talaveda, drops into their home for a chat about the missing cash, accompanied by the giant Enoka brothers, life becomes trickier than ever.
Will this new peril derail their plans to re-educate a man with a handlebar moustache who persuaded Lennie's beloved Aunty Doreen that money really did "grow on trees" - and drove her to the grave?
Might a sea voyage with Aunty D's tormentor aboard their little yacht, Flamingo Sky, solve all their problems? Or might it all end in disaster?
"These eccentric inner-city Sydney crusaders are a whole new adventure in crime capers and my favourite series of the year so far... quirky and refreshingly wry," says Tom Flood, Winner of the Miles Franklin Award.
"Redolent of 'Lord Of The Flies and 'Of Mice And Men'...A post-Zen Batman and Robin...Lennie and Joe, and their pet, Rawcus, configure a doctorate in elegant, fair-minded Gonzo retribution of the order of Pulp Fiction mixed with a fair slug of Wes Anderson's attention to detail..."
