Terror Australis (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Merv Shultz is a PI who was on a tricky job to rescue 10 year old Calem, from his Muslim father in Kuala Lumpur and to return him to his mother, Rhonda. Things go pear shaped when Rhonda and he are discovered and they have to flee the city quickly and return to Australia because their lives are in danger. From there things unfold rapidly in an intriguing fashion as Merv puts himself in harm's way on a number of occasions. Back in Brisbane Merv realised that Calem wasn't actually living in Malaysia, but on a small property outside of a small regional town called Warwick. Merv suspects that all is not what it seems on the cattle farm. Intermingled with the suspense of attempting to rescue Calem is Merv's on/off love life with his former girlfriend Janice, which complicates his life. Toss in his relationship and violent past with Sergeant Martin McKenna of the Queensland Police, and the action packed story of ruthless and violent terrorism unfolds.

Autor

In my early career I worked at Queensland Newspapers, the publisher of the Courier Mail, Brisbane's daily newspaper. Then I travelled a bit and ended up in Vienna, Austria, where I was lucky enough to get a job in the publication section of the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation, or UNIDO for short.

Later on when I returned home I was employed by another daily newspaper, the Queensland Times in Ipswich, a major regional town outside of Brisbane. I followed that with a stint at Queensland Country Life, a weekly newspaper, that services the farmers and pastoralist of the huge state of Queensland.

However I wanted to be my own boss, so I bought a small printing business here in Brisbane and ran that, along with my wife, Helen, for around 12 years. Sold it and retired to do what I do now, play some golf, travel, exercise and write.

Writing came late to me, it's a passion and a hobby all rolled into one. Yet it can be time consuming, even though I'm retired sometimes my passion does feel like work. But . . . like lots of amateurs on Smashwords when someone, like yourself, downloads one of my books it gives me a thrill. So thanks for taking the time to read my musings.
