What happens if you fall in love with a killer? Jack Lockwood, psychologist/criminal profiler and writer falls in love with Lucy Green, whom he later has reason to believe may be the child-killer, Megan Foster. Megan was held in custody aged eight, in 1982, and released ten years later with a new identity. Simultaneously, Jack is being targeted by a gangster who does not want him to write his (unauthorised) biography. What’s more there’s a serial killer on the loose in historic Canterbury, someone christened called ‘the Bible Killer’, who targets women and kills them in a particularly gruesome manner. Is Lucy the Bible Killer? Jack has to find out, but the answers are far from simple. . .

Fatal Exchange


Author: Russell Blake

Tess Gideon, a female Manhattan bike messenger with an appetite for the wild side, becomes embroiled in a rogue nation's Byzantine scheme to destabilize the U.S. financial system.

From the sweltering streets of Seoul to the sex-and-drug-driven underbelly of Greenwich Village, attempts at silencing a leak in an international counterfeiting operation leave a trail of butchery that leads inevitably to Wall Street, pitting a counter-culture heroine against a ruthless state-sponsored assassination team that will stop at nothing to achieve its lethal ends.

As the body count climbs, Tess is assisted by Detective Ron Stanford, a NYPD homicide specialist tracking a brutal serial killer whose ritualistic cycle of murder and mutilation targeting bike messengers is escalating to fever pitch.

Tess's battle to survive propels her into a deadly underworld where she must become judge and executioner, challenging her core beliefs about morality, justice and love.

Author Description:
Rik Stone worked in the shipyards on the River Tyne and spent time in the Merchant Navy long before he was in a position to pursue his dream of writing full time. Whether the sea was in his blood or he just loved traveling isn't clear, but from his experiences of exotic locations his imagination was fired up and he wrote Birth of an Assassin, the first in a series.

Brazil had been the first foreign soil his feet touched down on and that was when he and other crew members were flown out to pick up a ship. The memories of what he saw on his travels in South America and the images that were conjured up, have lived on in his mind over the years and now, because the story refused to go on hold, he has taken time out from the Birth of an Assassin series to write a present day novel set in an imaginary favela, on an imaginary hillside, in Recife.
