Rockdown In Lockdown Adam Maxwell

Violet Winters was a master criminal. A one-woman crimewave. Until lockdown happened. Now she's stuck in the house catching up on box sets and ordering crap off the internet.

And then she finds out about The Lakehouse. A former rehab facility, the residents have been thrown out and replaced with a roll-call of some of the most dangerously stupid celebrities in this hemisphere all indulging in a torrent of excess while the rest of the world cowers in their beds.

And that doesn't sit well with Violet.

At the centre of the The Lakehouse is a vault and inside... the combined riches of every one of these over-privileged idiots. Violet hatches a cunning plan to pull off an audacious robbery and begins by planting a man on the inside.

But when does anything ever go to plan?

With a social media starlet hell-bent on revealing Violet's identity to her millions of followers and a deranged MMA fighter on their trail things rapidly go from bad to worse.

If she can pull off the world's only socially-distanced heist, it will be the stuff of legend.

If she can't she might very well end up floating face-down in the lake.

Rockdown in Lockdown is the fourth book in the Kilchester series. It mixes high-octane heist shenanigans with sharp, surreal wit.
