Book Description
Retirement can be murder! The adventures of a former Sydney detective from 21 Division who, in his prime, collared some of the most murderous criminals in Australian history yet, on retiring to the Gold Coast in Queensland, along with half of the criminal milieu he once pursued, is shot, king-hit, tortured, and thrown from buildings in his relentless pursuit of justice. With his trademark wit, warmth and humour, Matthew Condon takes us on a crazy ride - in boats, kombis, peugeots and window-washing platforms - through art galleries, libraries, swampy islands and caravan parks to illustrate that we are never too old for adventures.

Book Description
A fashion-obsessed sleuth must solve a murder as she starts a new executive career—and try to resist abusing her corporate credit card… Just because Haley lacks the right qualifications for her new position as corporate events coordinator doesn't mean she murdered her company's chief of security. Nothing about her fashion sense screams deadly killer, but she'll need to shop around on her own for some guilt-proof clues to prove the police are looking in the wrong bag. Especially since some of the other recent hires at the company also have something to hide. . . Between her many investigations, the new high-pressure job, and her just-moved-in boyfriend, there's almost no time for the most important thing in Haley's life: maxing out her credit card. If she's going to catch a killer, she'll need to be on her toes--heels and all--or she'll be this season's hottest victim. . . "The well-crafted plot, humor, and designer details will appeal to fans of Laura Levine and MaryJanice Davidson." --Booklist "Fast and fun. . . Established fans and newcomers alike will look forward to her next appearance." --Publishers Weekly

Book Description
Haley Randolph's new job as a corporate events coordinator suits her like classic Chanel--as long as no one finds out her only degree is from bartending school. But then again, trouble's always afoot in the life of this amateur sleuth/professional fashionista...On Haley's first day on the job, she finds the chief of security--who was performing Haley's background check--bludgeoned in her office. Naturally, the police peg Haley as their prime suspect, so she'll need to shop around on her own for some guilt-proof clues. Especially since some of the other recent hires at the company also have something to hide...One of her new co-workers leads a double life--as in two wives and two sets of children. Another makes secretive, unexplained trips out of the country. Between her many investigations, the new high-pressure job, and her just-moved-in boyfriend, there's almost no time for the most important thing in Haley's life: maxing out her credit card. And it seems the company's squeaky-clean image is covering a lot of dirty truths. Though Haley's turning up a grab bag of suspects while squeezing in a few sales, the murderer is still knocking off her co-workers. If she's going to catch this killer, she'll need to be on her toes--heels and all--or she'll be this season's hottest victim.

Book Description
The Intern Murders is a convoluted enigma stymieing the best of the best as they seek out the worst of the worst to find a killer or killers. After two interns are killed, the motive is simple, and the dragnet begins. After five murders, SCOTUS is in existential danger; the obvious original motives are moot; and the FBI and the nation's intelligence services feel like fools. There is vituperation between and among the blacks and whites, the Republicans and Democrats, more than a few international players, and it looks like war will break out within the hallowed chambers of the Supreme Court Justices. There is no end in sight.
