  Brian Thompson is living a lie. A successful businessman, Brian can't stay focused in a real relationship and cheats on Timothy, his longtime lover. A phone call from his younger brother Joey, whom Brian hasn't spoken to in years, makes him recognize the uncanny resemblance between the two men.
  Joey is, in a word, perfect. In Brian's eyes, he always has been. When their mother is hospitalized, Joey asks his older brother to come home. He tells Brian he needs him, which is just what Brian wants to hear. But the long trip north gives Brian plenty of time to think about his brother, and he comes to realize an unsettling truth -- he is in love with Joey. 
  Suddenly Brian admits that he wants Joey in ways he knows he shouldn't. Can he come to terms with the way he feels before his unrequited love threatens to tear him -- and his relationships with Timothy and Joey -- apart?

  Part provocateur, part seducer, this young gay man’s account of life offers one of the freshest takes on Australia and the world today. 
  Honouring poets of the past – Jean Genet, Veronica Franco, Euripedes, Hunter S. Thompson, Oscar Wilde – and joining in their task of finding meaning in existence and the modern world, Tolcher has produced a brazenly honest debut without precedent. 
  Through his writing he subverts his own shame, weaponises it, and positions himself as an anti-hero of our time right when we need him the most. 
  Following his humble beginnings as an outcast in the dreary outer suburbs of Brisbane and escalating into a Dionysian, poetic and pornographic international climax, Poof follows Tolcher's search for love and purpose as he is drawn to the beds of powerful, sadistic men. If he can endure just a little longer, a little more... will they love him? 
  In an age of victimhood, Tolcher offers us a roadmap to empowerment and integrity as he pulls back the curtain on both our pride and our shame, and shines a spotlight on a hidden history that has been erased time and again.

  Buck Ellis’s future seems pretty damn bright. With a full college scholarship in hand, he’s going to ditch Bluewater Bay and pave the way for his kid brother Charlie to do the same.

  But then Buck’s mother dies, changing everything, and five years later, his future is still on hold. It’s a struggle to keep food on the table, a roof over their heads, and Charlie on the straight and narrow.

  Armed with a master's degree in accounting, Angus Green faces a future filled with tax forms and spreadsheets, but his dead father's legacy to him is a desire to get out and explore the world.  
  When The Next One Will Kill You opens, he's just completed his training to become an FBI agent and been assigned to the Miami field office, where the range of cases is wild and the criminals even wilder. 
  Handsome, red-haired and sexy, twenty-something Angus is openly gay and uses his looks and his brains in his first case, which takes him from Fort Lauderdale's gay bars to the morgue on a desperate chase to catch a gang of criminals with their tentacles in everything from medical fraud to jewel theft. 
  But if Angus can't overcome his own insecurities and face down violent criminals with mayhem on their minds, he could lose everything he cares about. The street quickly teaches him that the only way to face a challenge is to assume that he'll survive this one--that it'll be the next one that will kill him.
