{"product_id":"piotr-ivan-young-9798635427293","title":"Piotr: An accidental hero. A very small man. A very large problem.","description":"Piotr Vasilyevich is not a hero. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHe is not clever, not brave, and not, by any measure anyone has yet devised, competent. What he is, is extraordinarily lucky in the worst possible way. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen a drunken search for a dropped cigarette accidentally destroys a live terrorist car bomb, Piotr wakes up a decorated national hero. Before he can explain the misunderstanding, he is recruited into the FSB, Handed a rank he does not deserve, and dropped into a vast underground world of secret trains, flame-throwers, murderous colonels and a coffee shop looted from a Nazi bunker. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThere is only one small problem. Everyone believes Piotr is a genius. He is, in fact, an idiot. And the higher he fails upward, the more people around him tend to die. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom the corridors of the Lubyanka to a very bad afternoon on a London bus, PIOTR is a gleefully dark, gloriously silly comedy of catastrophe and coincidence, for anyone who likes their farce with a body count. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIf you loved the chaos of Tom Sharpe or the wit of Christopher Brookmyre, meet your new favourite fool. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHe survives everything. Which is more than can be said for anyone standing near him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ivan Young\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798635427293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/05\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.67d","brand":"Ivan Young","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49174309535999,"sku":"9798635427293","price":11.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_938bb294-13a8-492c-9767-9924655df900.jpg?v=1788958904","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/piotr-ivan-young-9798635427293","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
