Colin Batemanin "Voro-Jack" (Loki, 1998) on mustalla huumorilla ryyditetty jännitysromaani sukkelasanaisesta journalistista, joka eräänä yönä päätyy suutelemaan väärää naista ja ajautuu sen vuoksi keskelle vaarallista peliä.

He wrote the screenplays for the feature films of Divorcing Jack, Crossmaheart and Wild About Harry. His performance in Divorcing Jack isn't quite as remarkable as the one he gave five years before in Naked but it's fantastic by its own right, and just like in Naked Thewlis creates an anti-hero that is egoistic, weak, detestable, and entirely believable; if you're looking for a noble hero to sacrifice himself for the greater good because that's the right thing to do, look elsewhere.

Keegan then threatens to kill Starkey's wife Patricia, who had been kidnapped by him earlier, unless Starkey can give him the tape. Divorcing Jack is a Comedy film directed by David Caffrey and starring David Thewlis and Rachel Griffiths. I do like how Bateman integrates the then current political situation and local color into the fictional story and provides good details on the political and socioeconomic situations at the time. U nás vyšly tři knížky, přečetl jsem tu první a další svěřil Štěpánovi Kopřivovi, abychom mohli udělat téma. As he hunts for the tape, Starkey is pursued by several parties, including an IRA contingent with a reputation for mayhem and violence.

Starkey and Parker are taken to a council block Keegan controls, where Keegan threatens to kill Parker unless Starkey hands over the tape. A mint shared with a woman he barely knows as his wife whispers in his ears, "You have twenty-four hours to move out.
