The Blurb
A fast-paced Crime Thriller in the tradition of Lee Child, The Last Part Is Death is set in modern London with politicians, criminals and police escalating tension in a search for control and power. Raucous stands alone as a man operating on beliefs ingrained from an early age, watching his place of birth being used as a tool to bring men to national fame.

He will fight and kill to protect his home and his loves.

Charlotte cannot leave, cannot walk away from a life she no longer needs. She stays and works for money she no longer loves and the notoriety she has never craved. But she knows Raucous is the reason she is waiting, the reason her life cannot move on.

Amber is seeking fame and fortune in a world in which she should not belong. Her partner is a way into the power she believes she deserves. Her mind is her weapon and defense against men who know nothing but answering with force.

The Last Part Is Death

Raucous is a man with a violent past, employed to protect a gangland boss who is nearing the end of his reign.

Raucous protects because he gave his word. A world of conflict in which he stands as a man of violent principle. But new criminals backed by old-school gangsters are pushing to take his employer's life.

Charlotte turns illegal gains into clean money. A legitimate side to the dirty cash. They want her and all the riches she protects. But she won't run and can never hide.

Political power, laundered money and revenge for putting the old-school away are the backdrop to a city on the edge of war.

What readers are saying about the author.

"Very seldom do you discover a new author who makes you glad you kept searching for a worthwhile read. Too many books today are highly rated but filled with the same stories, identical characters who fulfill their obligation of getting to the conclusion - finally - and you are glad it's over.
This book, from the very beginning, keeps you hanging with anticipation and anxious for the next page. A talented author, for sure, who knows how to tell a story with characters who make it all come alive." Donnie USA
