Backlash (a thriller)

Published in 2024 in paperback and e-book formats by Wallace Publishing.


You’re being blackmailed.

But it isn’t your money they want.

Instead, you’re forced to pass the blackmailer’s threats to his more dangerous victims. Now it’s you who’s acting as blackmailer.

But what will you do when an arms dealer decides he won’t pay and it’s you he’s determined to kill?

Young interior designer Trish McGowan’s life and career are thrown into chaos. After narrowly surviving a bomb blast that destroys her shop, she finds herself running for her life. She quickly realises tracking down her blackmailer, the mysterious Argus, and trying to get his help is the only way she’ll manage to stay alive. But an experienced criminal who wants to remain anonymous isn’t easy to find.

And he might be hiding in plain sight right in front of her.

As the arms dealer’s noose starts to close around McGowan, she uncovers two more of Argus’ victims, and they form an uneasy alliance to stop the blackmail once and for all.
