Paint Stop Boom

"Heroes v's heroic acts, intentions v's instincts, paintings that stop bombs, a city changing to the tick of the clock that everyone is racing against, and the nature of change." Paint Stop Boom revolves around two very different characters. Anais is an eccentric artist who unwittingly paints pieces that stop bombs. Yet she is unwilling to stop the attacks in Sydney. She does not want to be a hero. Michael cannot comprehend how anyone would not believe in saving the world if they could. He lost his family to a terrorist attack that exploded in the heart of Sydney and steals her paintings to stop the bombs. Anais wants her life back. Her paintings are gone and she is running out of time to enter the Venice Biennale. Michael is running out of time. He has stolen all her paintings and he needs more. But the police are after him for theft. It is a story of heroes versus anti-heroes; the difference between those who want to lead their lives as best they can and those who want to save the world.
