The famous British actor Hugh Laurie, inspired by the literary successes of his friend and colleague Stephen Fry, wrote a parody action film. Elegant style, subtle jokes, charming characters and far from banal observations were appreciated by both discerning readers and critics. There is nothing surprising in this - P. G. Wodehouse himself would be proud of a book like The Gun Merchant. Thomas Lang is a former full-time military man and professional fighter against terrorism. And now he is a vagabond and an adventurer who has nothing to lose except his heart, and who can be relied upon by anyone except himself. Thomas's problem is that he doesn't like killing people, his other problem is honesty, and in the world of hired killers and arms dealers, honesty and humanity are not in vogue. But it is into this world that the villainous fate throws the hero. Thomas would sell glass bags, lipstick or vacuum cleaners. The work is, of course, dreary, but understandable. You ring the doorbell and smile from ear to ear. But everything is different if you need to snag a combat helicopter capable of making five hundred miles per hour and a thousand corpses per minute. And if you still want to survive, save your beloved girl and honestly earn your fee, then the task becomes a hundred times more difficult...
