Description
Someone's going to have to take the fall…
Vancouver's streets are awash with unusually pure heroin, and junkies are dropping like flies.
When several dealers join the parade of the newly dead - all of them working for ancient crime kingpin Jake Cappalletti - the cops sniff a pattern.
Wayne Sharpe is a Harley Davidson obsessed thug with big dreams - he wants to replace Jake.
So Wayne's partner, April, kidnaps a petty thief, Lewis, and teaches him some very bad habits.
Wayne's so busy killing people he neglects April, who pretty soon starts to believe she might be falling for Lewis.
But, as usual, she could be wrong.
Meanwhile, as the homicide squad engages in an intensive hunt for the killer, police detectives Jack Willows and Claire Parker have other - more personal - concerns.
Willows, finally divorced, is free to marry Parker. But sometimes freedom's just another word for plenty left to lose.
As the investigation heats up, Willows believes that he and Parker won't have time to spare for nagging domestic issues.
Like April, he could be wrong…
Shutterbug is a chilling and fast-paced crime novel that will keep you gripped.
Praise for Laurence Gough
“Gough is one of the most inventively reliable bloodsmiths in the trade. His plots and characters are strong and convincing, his mordant humour never forced, the action violent but believable.” - The Times (London)
“Gough is one of the best crime writers in the country… His murder mysteries are of the hardboiled variety, but with a wickedly twisted brand of black comedy … Wild and wingy rollercoaster rides.”- Toronto Sun
"Like the other books in the series, Shutterbug is fast and fun to read, with great dialogue and touches of black humour."- Halifax Chronicle-Herald
