About this listen

 Martin Carter is having a crook day. His home life's a misery, he's been retrenched by the bank, and everyone's forgotten his birthday. But a million-dollar payroll, a pistol, and a split-second decision change everything. Hurtling north on a motorcycle with the intriguing Faith, Martin encounters a mysterious hit-man, a new-age bike gang, a reclusive media mogul, and the booby-trapped mountain hideout of an old schoolmate. With Faith's help he learns about love again, along with some bitter truths about instant coffee, brown suede shoes, and the legendary Great Aussie Truck-stop Breakfast.©2004 Geoffrey McGeachin (P)2005 Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd.

Editorial reviews

Geoffrey McGeachin didn't publish his first novel until 2004, but since the award-winning debut of Fat, Fifty, and F***ed!, McGeachin has made up for lost time, writing two complete series in the wake of his initial success. The author is like the Australian version of Carl Hiaasen, populating his novels with wit, humor, and (often) criminal action.

Actor Peter Hosking has performed more than 100 audiobooks over the course of several decades. He brings his expert pacing and agility to this winner of the inaugural Australian Popular Fiction Competition. The performance is above all entertaining, taking emotionally defeated protagonist Martin Carter from 0 to 60 in a matter of seconds.

Critic Reviews

"A very satisfying adventure/romantic comedy with an undercurrent of impending danger....An effortlessly entertaining story that will have you itching to hit the open road yourself." (Australian Crime Fiction Database)

Written and told in a way that makes you see each scene, love and/or hate each character and should be made into a movie.

Would make the next great Aussie movie!!

Fun story. Not dissing the narrator however some books cannot translate in someone elses voice. There are a lot of one liners that just do not come across right.

All up, I got into it and enjoyed the characters.

Fun adventure

I have listened to this book twice now and absolutely love it, but there is no doubt that it's brought to life by the excellent narrator. It contains a lot of typical Australian sayings so might not appeal to everyone.

Great Aussie Humour

Peter Hosking is my favourite narrator. I almost stopped after its unlikely start but persevered just to see how it would all end up.

Frivolity
