![DEAD SHOT: A Detective Jack Creed Mystery (Detective Jack Creed Murder Mystery Books Series Book 1) by [Mitchell, C T]](https://images-fe.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/519RgEUxNML._SY346_.jpg)
This short story is one of those exceptional novels that you manage to find as a freebie, which I did on Kindle Australia, that entices you to read a new body of work by a previously undiscovered author.
The author is Australian (Yipee! A fellow countryman) and I must say impressed me greatly by writing a novel set in Australia that didn't paint the locals as half retarded with colloquialisms you cringe at. While there were a few Aussie-isms, they rang true and were ones that I would use.
The writing was wonderfully paced and executed, the plot quite current in its topic and with characters you could become invested in.
I enjoyed this offering SO much that I have signed up to be on his readers list and have downloaded more of his books in this series.
Product Description
"Multiple gun fire breaks the silence. Three down. Who’s next?"
Universities are safe havens where students pursue academic excellence. Not former UK student Nicholas Weatherbythough. He’s pursuing three class mates who have rejected him. He has them in his sights. He won’t stop until they are dead. But he’s not alone. He’s got a sympathizer with a bigger axe to grind. In 48 hours they’ll be heroes…….
Dead Shot is the first in the Detective Jack Creed mystery series; a collection of murder mystery books and short reads set in and around Cabarita Beach, a sleepy seaside village in northern NSW, Australia. Normally a quiet tourist town; it seems to be a mecca for international crime and mystery.
Jack Creed is a traditional detective with a twist. He’s part of a police procedural team, but that’s where the similarities end. Readers of Australian mystery books author C T Mitchell say Creed is a “Rebus in a Valentino suit”. But don’t let his Italian loafers, linen jackets or his ‘67 Mustang fool you. Creed is hard, anti-establishment, a fiercely loyal family man and the copper you need in a crime investigation with no unsolved mysteries to his name.
Australia has never had a University mass shooting. In this crime fiction new release, Creed must wade through a myriad of suspects if he is to solve this murder mystery with a psychological thriller edge. He's not having a killing spree on his patch.
