Mackie's Law (Mackie's Law Trilogy Book 1) by Graeme Wright (Elmfield Editions) (34 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

The discovery of a skull in high-country New Zealand sets in motion events that peel away the past to disturb the lives of men and women in small towns not used to outside eyes. For too many years their local affairs have been hidden away by time and back roads: a farmer's missing wife, their daughter the biker chick, a pregnant waitress, the go-to man "stooped as often as not over a truck engine, some farm machinery or a table at the tavern", the politician with both eyes on the main chance and a dark secret even he has forgotten. Central to them all is Pete Mackie, the only law back of beyond where sometimes the best way of upholding the law is by bending the rules. But like the towns he serves, not everything about Pete Mackie is what it seems - as rookie radio journalist Sandra Blaine discovers when she ventures off the highway on to gravel roads in search of someone else's story. A witty, racy page-turner, Mackie's Law sees the iconoclastic London-based sportswriter Graeme Wright return to the people and roots of early short stories set in his native New Zealand. It may not be a New Zealand all readers will know but it will certainly be one that many recognise in spite of themselves.

Jack Hamma's assignment: protect a beautiful Chinese girl. At Adelaide airport she goes into the ladies room. She disappears. A relentless thriller. Every move is a false start. Every clue is a red herring. Reviews: 'The latest instalment of Jack Hamma and his detective agency is currently my favorite.' 'The pace of the book is fast and this is matched by the pace of the humor.' 'The ending, it had me going oooooooh!!! ' 'It ended with a twist that took me utterly by surprise.' 'A really strong book.' 'There are car chases aplenty, climbing up buildings whilst being shot at, epic hand to hand fight scenes, big old shoot-outs and one hefty door that comes to the rescue.' 'Difficult to put this book down because I kept wondering how sun-loving tea-drinking Jack Hamma would continue to escape from the baddies and fight another day. Often the answer is surprising - as he zips past the roadblock in an ice-cream van. It's pure fantasy in the best tradition. Jack leaps (often to conclusions), throws quips and punches, and shoots off his mouth through every dire situation. He's full of charmingly misplaced confidence and oddly wholesome food.
