Recenzje

'A quarter of a century after his classic heist film Heat, the director Michael Mann returns to the scene of the crime in this absolutely gripping thriller, written with Meg Gardiner. Twin timelines explore the before-and-after of that celluloid clash between the unstoppable bank robber Neil McCauley and the immovable Los Angeles cop Vincent Hanna, with the action ranging from home invasions in suburban Chicago to Chinese crime families in 1990s Paraguay. Sweep, self-confidence and a cinematic sheen make this the most immersive of reads' The Times

'Michael Mann's HEAT is one of my all-time favorite movies. Michael Mann and Meg Gardiner's HEAT 2 is now one of my favorite suspense novels.'

"Awesome! This novel is a stunning achievement in character study, narrative form and action. I am in awe. A stunning page-turner every bit as masterful as the original movie. Easily one of the finest novels of the year!"
Steve Cavanagh, #1 International bestselling author

'This audacious, powerhouse of a novel brings to the page everything the classic crime film HEAT brought to the screen... The metaphors and descriptions conjure up vivid, original images worthy of Mann's best big movies.'
