How does it feel to get £25 million out of the blue?
'Think of it like winning the National Lottery, except we didn't even fork out for a
ticket...'
Matthew King, living on a mysterious legacy from his mother, Who lives in apparent poverty
on the Greek island of Skiathos, has found out that it's murder.
When Matthew's daughter is shot dead, he alone knows that the money and the murder are
connected. Against accusations of cocaine-induced paranoia, he embarks on a private
odyssey into a dark world of political intrigue and sexual corruption. His only ally is a
Greek detective who plays everything by the book, his only weapon is hard cash. Matthew's
wealth has cost him everything, and now he wants what money can't buy - revenge.
Out Of The Blue is an unstoppable thriller in which cash is a curse, love is
a burden, and where family skeletons have a nasty habit of coming back to life. And the
final twist in Matthew's epic journey will take your breath away.
Alphabet City
The whole of New York City is reading Steven Hawthorne's new book, and that includes the
FBI.
New Yorkers think that any writer who lives undercover for a whole year with one of the
city's toughest street gangs must be a hero. The FBI think he's a material witness to a
gangland murder. So do some frightening elements of New York's underworld.
Only Steven Hawthorne knows the truth, and he's been telling lies for so long the truth
might just kill him. His only hope of salvation is his ex-wife, and she thinks it's time
for him to get what he deserves.
Truth and lies. Alphabet City is a place somewhere in between - and it's
dangerous.
