About this Item

Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonver�nderung. Top Kiernan has been doing all right. He owns Polymath, a thriving research firm that he runs from his home, a 1930s-era schoolhouse in Georgia. He's got a bedroom in a basketball court, a drawer full of flannel shirts, and a splendid collection of spinning tops. He's also got a side-gig as a free-lance operative for a mercenary group, which sends him on periodic and often perilous errands to Latin America. Top can't live without the buzz, the adrenalin rush of being permanently on the edge - and he doesn't have very long to wait.When Top's long-time friend Dee Lane disappears suddenly, leaving $1.5 million hidden somewhere in Georgia, everyone thinks Top's got the stash. He finds himself the target of ambitious DEA men, a drug lord, an ex-IRA assassin, and a few others who want to get their hands on the money and will kill Top to do so. He knows it's going to take more than adrenalin to survive the manoeuvres of all the players in the dangerous game that this compelling, deftly plotted debut thriller brings to a stunning and explosive finish.

Store Description

B�cher kaufen und verkaufen an einem Ort, schnell und ohne Aufwand ? so lautet unser Bookbot Erfolgskonzept. Mit unserem innovativen Konzept machen wir mit Bookbot den Online-Buchhandel nachhaltiger und bringen hochwertige, gebrauchte B�cher antiquarisch in den Umlauf. Mit der Leidenschaft f�r B�cher, dem Wunsch ihren Lebenszyklus zu verl�ngern und dabei gleichzeitig die Umweltbelastung zu reduzieren, hat Dominik Gazdo? Bookbot gegr�ndet. Im klaren Fokus stehen dabei Kundenkomfort und Benutzerfreundlichkeit. Unsere Plattform verspricht Leser*innen eine breite Auswahl sowie einen sicheren Kaufprozess. Von Bestsellern �ber Klassiker bis hin zu Nischenliteratur bietet wir auch lesefreudigen �sterreicher*innen eine wahre Schatzkiste zu fairen Preisen. Im Gegensatz zu herk�mmlichen Verkaufsplattformen gehen wir einen Schritt weiter, indem wir den gesamten Verkaufs- und Versandprozess �bernehmen ? angefangen beim professionellen Abfotografieren der B�cher bis hin zur Ermittlung eines fairen Preises sowie der Kommunikation mit potenziellen K�ufer*innen. Verk�ufer*innen schicken lediglich ihre Buchsch�tze an uns und warten, bis diese neue Besitzer*innen finden und das Entgelt bei ihnen eintrudelt. Die breitgef�cherte Auswahl an Buch-Genres reicht von Klassikern, Bestsellern �ber alte Sch�tze und kultigen Comics bis hin zu Fachpublikationen. Wir bieten hunderttausende Titel aller Genres in vielen Sprachen, meist in perfektem Zustand an. Bei �lteren oder besch�digten B�chern finden sich online detaillierte Bilder des Zustands auf unserer Website. Wir sind stolz, bereits 200.000 gl�ckliche Bookbot-Kund*innen an Bord zu haben und bieten damit eine breite Community an vielen potentielle K�ufer*innen. Nach gelungenen Markteintritten in Tschechien, Deutschland und der Slowakei, sind wir nun auch in �sterreich t�tig.
