“Tombstoning”

Book One
Now Available!

Detective Ange Watson is tougher than she looks—definitely tougher than she realises.

When asked to find a young surfer who vanished from a nearby fishing village, Ange feels confident she’ll solve the matter quickly, leaving the weekend free to enjoy the beach and catch some awesome waves. It’s ironic how the simple jobs are the ones that turn to custard.

As Ange dives deeper into the case, she’s swept up in a frantic chase to expose the truth and prevent further carnage. Every turn reveals yet another disturbing connection. There’s something sinister circling Namba Heads, something bigger and more treacherous than she ever imagined.

It’s not all hard work. The waves are fantastic and she loves the look of that mysterious property developer she meets while surfing. Fingers crossed he doesn’t turn into another of her patented ‘Male Fails’.

Everything is connected Ange—watch your step. Something stinks in town, and it’s not dead fish…

“The Saltwater Crime novels are evocative Australian surf noir (if that’s not a thing, it should be), a cross between Garry Disher and early Don Winslow, and combine environmental activism, political corruption, star chamber hearings, suspicious property developers, and a few sexy bits. Highly recommended!!” Sarah Elks, book reviewer and senior journalist at The Australian newspaper.

“Gripping from Beginning to End. Tombstoning is the best kind of crime novel…grabs you early on, loads of nasty characters who seem okay initially…couldn’t put it down!” DJG

Book Two
Now Available!

The irrepressible Detective Ange Watson is back for the gripping second instalment of the Saltwater Crimes Trilogy. 

Ange’s return to her beat in Byron Bay certainly doesn’t go to plan. Some deep soul searching is needed when her reputation is left in tatters. Her fixation on the criminal syndicate behind the Namba Heads tragedies leads her to adopt the persona of a shady cop and head north to the glittering Gold Coast. All that glitters is definitely not gold!

With some newfound surf buddies to keep her company and aided by a surprising and thrilling reunion, she uncovers shocking alliances and a sleazy kingpin pulling the strings. Narcotics, gambling and deception collide, and Ange must use every ounce of her skill and intuition to decipher the ingenious scam that the syndicate has in play.

Her relentless pursuit becomes a race against time when some giant egos with lofty connections pile on pressure to abandon the chase. At every step, the villains seem one step ahead, almost taunting and teasing Ange and her colleagues.

The tides of fate are unpredictable. Will Ange or the syndicate prevail?
