The Sheriff Of Geneva

A cache of Venezuelan gold bullion is hijacked en route to safe-keeping in a bank vault deep in the Swiss countryside, the heist orchestrated by the elusive Mr Bonjour, an international man of mystery and villain.

Through a series of events, the gold ends up not in Bonjour's hands, but in the grease separator of the newly opened Gourmet Burger Factory restaurant in downtown Geneva. The staff, a motley crew of young strays and disparate characters have a choice - keep the bullion safe for Bonjour's imminent arrival, or take the loot and run, knowing the elusive villain may already be amongt them.

Richard Williams's second novel is a high-octane, high-stakes thriller steeped in intrigue with a journalistic eye for character detail and dialogue.
