'David Lewis, former Navy clearance diver, one-time screw and bouncer, is kidnapped by unknown persons. His lover, ex-Federal police officer, Rachel Dawes, has to call on the help of the only person she can – Steven James Forbes, career criminal and probable psychopath. The two travel to David’s farm, Tobin’s River Run, at the foot of Mt Seaview in Port Macquarie’s hinterland, to see what they can ascertain about David’s disappearance, finding the main bedroom a blood-covered mess. 

The kidnappers contact them and make their demands. Rachel and Steve begin the machinations to get David back unscathed. But things don’t go easy when they find that David’s kidnappers are a band of Australian-born, radicalised Muslim bad boys who are hell-bent on wreaking havoc in Australia. This brings two other players onto the scene: Oktay Saglam, a Turkish national with a mysterious background, and Craig Johnson, a disgraced and corrupt New South Wales cop, now apparently working for one of the intelligence services. The two coerce David, Rachel and Steve into helping them try to locate an Afghan/Russian hit man, working for a notorious Sydney outlaw motorbike gang, which is engaging in its own nefarious activities. 

The story is told through the eyes of the main protagonist, Rachel Dawes, who pulls no punches when mixing it with all the alpha males. Fast-paced and sexually explicit, Shot at the Title is a wild tale of what could easily happen.' (Source: Publisher's blurb)

'Lure of the Dirty Dollar is set in Sydney in the late 1990s. The background to the story revolves around the Cash In Transit industry, where the main protagonist, David Lewis, ex-Navy clearance diver, nightclub owner, screw and sometime private investigator works on the armoured cars as a casual employee, a cover for his more sinister occupation as a career hit man for a secret government agency. Lewis's next contract kill is an ex Stasi intelligence officer, Rudi Dietrich, who, it has been decided by various governments around the world, must be liquidated as he has been organizing robberies across Europe with gangs of other ex military personnel that have netted millions of dollars in cash, gold and diamonds. The proceeds, it is believed, may be used as a refunding for the once powerful Stasi organization, or helping to finance Rudi's old masters to continue living in the style they had become accustomed to. Dietrich and his live-in lover, Vass Tsanidis, are seduced by Lewis, who gains their confidence through his machinations, getting the pair involved in a plot to rob an armoured vehicle in an effort to make a dirty dollar before Lewis is ready to kill Dietrich. Twist and turns make this story highly possible, with the intrigue and espionage that we find so much a part of normality in these troubled times. It's a fast-paced read of raw talk, sex, drugs and violence, definitely not for the faint hearted or wowser.'
