A Weekend At Joe's

In between Skeletons In The Closet and The Lion's Den is this little gem. 
Joe's much anticipated doo. If you can't get enough of Mark Bannon, Mick Ryan and all the colourful characters from the fictional town of Mara you can join them for a weekend of fun and laughter at Joe's with a spot of shooting, a barbeque and an old fashioned outback country dance.
While this is not a necessary part of the Mara Mysteries who can't resist a little fun in between the serious stuff? 

You can download this little short story from Amazon Here. 

 

 A sneak peek at the opening paragraphs for The Lion's Den. 

Editing is coming along and on track for an early December release. Chapters will begin drifting into my proof-readers inboxes within the next two weeks. 

Meanwhile enjoy this tantilising, spine chilling excerpt.

 

 

Betrayal In The Dust - Jack Smith Series Raw … Outback … Action When ex-detective Jack Smith discovers the body of missing backpacker Grace Wilson during a hunting trip, he faces an impossible choice: walk away and return to his quiet exile, or risk everything to uncover the truth behind her death. Jack can't let it go. His discovery haunts him, driving him from isolation to investigate—and he quickly realises Grace’s murder is connected to something far more sinister than a random killing. Her death pulls him into the grim underworld of Ethan Kelly’s human trafficking empire. A brutal network shielded by corrupt officials at every level. Jack can't take on Kelly alone. He reaches out to his former partner, ex-Detective Senior Constable Alice Saunders, and the morally questionable drifter ex-Detective Sergeant Jasper Mitchell—a man whose past makes him as dangerous as the criminals they're hunting. Together, this unlikely team of damaged ex-cops must navigate a web of corruption, betrayal, and violence to bring down Kelly's network. But in a game where the rules are written by criminals and the system itself is compromised, can three flawed heroes deliver justice—or will they become the next victims? A gripping thriller about redemption, justice, and the price of doing what's right when the system has failed.

 Jack Smith is off to the proof readers. All looking good so far. 😊

 

 

In case your wondering what's happening with Jack Smith. I'm currently close to final edits and almost ready to send off to my proof readers. As this is a shorter story they will receive the full book in one file instead of chapter by chapter.

So far this accidental novel is looking good. 😃
