Reno mounts her motorcycle and sets a collision course for New York.
In 1977 the city is alive with art, sensuality and danger. She falls in with a
bohemian clique colonising downtown and the lines between reality and
performance begin to bleed.
A passionate affair with the scion of an Italian tyre empire carries Reno to
Milan, where she is swept along by the radical left and drawn into a spiral of
violence and betrayal.
The Flamethrowers is an audacious novel that explores the perplexing allure of
femininity, fakery and fear. In Reno we encounter a heroine like no other.
