    <b>Luke thought he'd left his violent past behind in this suspenseful debut crime thriller for fans of Lee Child and Jane Harper.</b><br/><br/><b>'A thrilling Australian debut, full of heart and crackling with tension.' Jane Harper</b><br/> <br/>After years away from his home town of Melbourne, Luke Harris is back on track. All he wants is a normal job, his own house and a dog.<br/><br/>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. <br/><br/>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.
