The crazy, effervescent characters from Dave Warner’s Exxxpresso finally get an encore in Double Exxxpresso.

Ex-con Rick Boski and his sexy and duplicitous partner Zeen have made good on their dream of running a prison-themed café and import business in downtown Perth.

But when former prison chaplain Father Paul Monaghan dips into the parish funds to bet on a ‘sure thing’ racehorse, Rick and Zeen need to call on their old skills to keep the good father, and themselves, out of real jail.

Double Exxxpresso is screwball crime-capering at its most exxxpressive as Rick and Zeen dodge a vicious Gold Coast criminal, an ambitious and dogged gaming detective, and a less than honest leviathan bookmaker. It’s an explosive brew of peril, friendship and—most of all—fun.
