After the Storm (2024)
G D Wright
"Cleverly written and filled with tension, After the Storm is an emotional and compelling read. Fantastic writing that kept me gripped until the last page. I loved it."
The Next to Die (2023)
(Dylan Kasper, book 1)
Elliot Sweeney
"An outstanding read. Gritty and compelling with a cast of richly-drawn characters, this is an exceptional book. A collection of menacing bad guys cause a whole heap of trouble for Kasper, the damaged hero, and that ending - wow!"
