Big Fish

First published in 1985 and long out-of-print, Big Fish, one of Thomas Perry’s most sought-after titles, is now available to readers in an e-book format. Powerfully-plotted and funny, Big Fish follows dangerous and mysterious Los Angeles entrepreneur Altmeyer, and his wife Rachel whose quiet lives in the Hollywood hills are disrupted when a multi-million dollar gunrunning deal goes bad.

Under most circumstances, Altmeyer might be mildly amused by the audacity of the double-cross. But whoever cheated Altmeyer may also be planning to destroy the world. With so much at stake, Altmeyer and Rachel and their friend, super-agent to the stars Bucky Carmichael, set off on a perilous adventure in search of the identity of the Big Fish. What they find is shocking and horrifying and all too credible.

Reviews:

“A fast-reading, big-time, silky thriller.” — People

“A new contender for top tough guy... We wanted to sell our house and buy the film rights, we were that impressed. Big Fish features a dashing, upscale couple... the Nick and Nora Charles of gunrunning... Altmeyer and Rachel have a chemistry that reaches critical mass on the opening page.” — Playboy

“Written with the same expertise as Mr. Perry’s previous successes... and that should keep his fans happy. All men will want to be Altmeyer and all women his Rachel.” — New York Times Book Review
