  Treachery and double-dealing are the rule in this spy vs spy thriller. Exciting, and Fast Paced. 
  A dead Mossad agent, Nazi rocket scientists, the Moslem Brotherhood, a corrupt American ambassador, and two missing Egyptian tank regiments – somebody’s trying to start another Arab-Israeli war. 
  Richard Thomson is a burnt-out CIA agent who the Agency dumped in Egypt because they couldn’t think of a worse place to send him. Already gnawed on by Langley and set-up by the Cairo police, his day can't get much worse, until someone leaves a dead body on the rear steps of his hotel with its head lopped off like a ripe melon. 
  A message? No doubt about it. While the world focuses on Russian missiles in Cuba, no one notices the ones being rolled out in the Egyptian desert pointed at Israel, no one, except Thomson. 
  Like Night of the Generals, this is a murder mystery wrapped inside an international political thriller. Tick Toc, Tick Toc, it's all going to start at Noon on Thursday, unless Thompson can stop them.

  Unable to reach an accommodation with his wife to place their mentally deranged son in a care facility, Andy exits his home and married life. 
  Stymied by the legal system to render a decision that might restore harmony to his once happy home, he seeks out his wife, who has fled with their two children to avoid a court ruling. 
  With no other recourse, Andy plots a diabolical plan to bring an end to his dysfunctional state, and breathe new life into his erstwhile homelife, unable to predict or control the spiraling consequences. 
  EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS an emotionally grueling tale of a father’s desperate plea to save his family, which turns deadly. 
  “Fast-paced and thought-provoking about the complexity of family connection, Russell delivers a Down Under drama that crackles with grit and realism, while dodging familiar genre tropes, resulting in a uniquely surprising and entertaining thriller.” ~ The Independent Review of Books

  Jerry Broadfield thinks he's a good cop. But now he's been charged with extortion—and his former buddies in the NYPD would like to see him laid out on a morgue slab for squealing to a committee on police corruption. Suddenly, he's got a lot of enemies, and when a dead call girl turns up in his apartment, his troubles get even bigger. Broadfield screams "setup," but nobody believes him—except ex-policeman, now unlicensed PI Matthew Scudder. Because Broadfield turned traitor, no cop is going to give Scudder any help with this investigation; so Scudder is on his own. But finding a killer among the stoolie cop's sleazebag connections is going to be as difficult as pouring a cold beer in hell—where some of Broadfield's enemies would like to see Scudder if he gets himself in too deep.
