About this listen

“It’s just life. Always. You’re either playing someone or you’re being played.”

When wannabe criminal Jonathan hears about a life-changing amount of unprotected cash just begging to be stolen, the opportunity is too good to pass up. Problem is he can’t do it alone, so he ropes in a couple of low rent potheads, kicking off a whole bunch of trouble. It’s left to Nuke, a gangster with an explosive temper and marital difficulties, to sort out the mess, all the time dealing with his psychotic bosses, some dodgy cops, his bored wife, and of course Jonathan, the man with the plan.

In the mould of Elmore Leonard or early Tarantino SCAM is an exciting crime comedy romp through five interconnected tales full of dumb criminals, harebrained schemes, formidable femme fatales, and even a sweet love story, all told with a distinctly Australian sensibility.

So, if you enjoy your crime gritty, your humour dark and dry, and plots that twist and turn and keep you guessing right up to the very last second, you’ll love Jack Stroke’s debut novel SCAM.
