Kill Shot

A brutal killing in the mangroves. A detective with everything to prove.

Tough ex-boxer DS Jack Lisbon didn’t cross the world for an easy life. Fresh off a troubled career in London, he’s barely gained his footing in steamy North Queensland when a mangled corpse washes up on the edge of a mangrove swamp. It looks like what locals blame on crocodiles.

But the wounds tell a different story.

This wasn’t nature. It was murder.

And when a champion athlete disappears the same night, police suddenly face a possible double homicide. The list of suspects grows fast, but the tight-knit community of Yorkville closes ranks, and nobody wants to talk.

DS Jack Lisbon and his partner, Detective Claudia Taylor, find themselves digging through a world of grudges, silence, and rising violence as they hunt a killer who’s spiralling out of control.

Kill Shot is the first full-length novel in The Fighting Detective series and can be read as a standalone. If you enjoy gritty police procedurals featuring uncompromising, hard-boiled detectives, this series is right up your street.
