Stillwater by Tanya Scott - Book

A violent past he'd rather forget, secrets that could get him killed.

Luke thought he’d left his violent past behind in this suspenseful debut crime thriller for fans of Lee Child and Jane Harper.

After years away from his hometown of Melbourne, Luke Harris is back on track. All he wants is a normal job, his own house and a dog.

But Luke is a man with a past, when life was anything but peaceful and his skills ran to the dark side. A past not easily forgotten – or forgiven.

When he crosses paths with Gus Alberici – the brutal criminal he worked for as a teenager – he's dragged reluctantly back to his old life. Luke's father has vanished, along with a chunk of Gus's cash. And something is up with his new girlfriend's father ...

As his past and present collide, can Luke keep his long-held secrets – and outsmart a man who will stop at nothing to get what he wants?
