Summary

Gritty, twisted and darkly hilarious, Bastard is a relentless crime thriller about justice, violence and what happens when one man takes it on himself to put the world straight – one beating at a time. Meet our narrator. He’s rich. He’s bored. He’s addicted to people-watching. And he’s an unapologetic bastard. But when this sharp-eyed loner starts spotting even bigger bastards – the abusive, the violent, the racist – he doesn’t just watch. He acts. With fists. With fury. With lessons no one forgets. Then he makes one mistake. He kills the wrong man, a prick in a suit with connections. Deadly ones. Suddenly he’s caught in a criminal web that stretches from gang bosses to cartel players to corrupt corridors of power. Forced into a game where everyone’s lying, everyone’s watching and the only rule is survival, he has to decide what kind of bastard he really is. A vigilante thriller with Reacher's fists, Ritchie's wit and absolutely no morals.
