RAFFERTY'S RULES
In the middle of a burger-store holdup, the only thing standing between ten-year-old Vivian Mollison and certain death is a police officer named Rafferty.
She lives. He gets fired.
Fast-forward fifteen years.
Vivian’s parents are wealthy beyond counting while Rafferty spends his days as a private investigator, hustling on the streets of Dallas.
So when he gets an out-of-the-blue phonecall from the Mollisons, Rafferty figures his long-awaited payday might have finally arrived.
But things are never that simple and the story they have to tell is like nothing he’s ever heard.
Can Rafferty save Vivian again?
Or is he already too late?
LAST SEEN ALIVE
Rafferty’s killing time in the Hallston yacht club bar when he meets Cindy Lawson.
Next morning he’s in jail for killing her.
The cops got it wrong. It happens.
But that leaves the question: if Rafferty didn’t kill Cindy, who did?
Hallston is bucolic; a lakeside hamlet a long way from the big city.
Peaceful streets, friendly neighbors, and family values. Just how the locals like it.
But first impressions never tell the whole story.
Everyone has something to hide in this small town where dark secrets surge and twist and intertwine underneath the picture-perfect surface.
Rafferty will drag them all into view as he searches for a violent killer hiding in plain sight.
It won’t all be smooth sailing.
Because some people will do anything to keep their secrets in the dark …
POOR DEAD CRICKET
Sandra ‘Cricket’ Dawes had undeniable proof of dangerous leaks and missing radioactive material at the nuclear facility run by Dormac-Chaffee.
She was all set to deliver the incriminating documents to a reporter, then sit back and watch the company get shut down for good.
Getting killed was never part of the plan.
The Green Army environmental group wants Rafferty to recover the missing files and prove Dormac-Chaffee was behind Sandra’s murder.
Simple, right?
Rafferty may not know much about nuclear physics but he can tell which direction the wind is blowing.
And, in a case where no-one is who they seem, he’ll need to be on high alert for every step.
Because as Rafferty closes in on Sandra’s killer,
Deadly fallout is headed his way …
