Hey there. Welcome.
There’s no need to be shy. Come on in. Take a look around.
The fact that you’ve landed here means you’re probably like us (at least a little).
You love stories of ordinary people who find themselves in desperate situations, and of the women and men who stand up and fight for them when no-one else will, right?
Good news: you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.
And have we got a story for you…
Bill & Cat
Ten years ago, her best friend vanished. Now, she’s back to uncover the truth—and a killer is watching.
For FBI Special Agent Eden Cross, returning to Adamstown isn’t a homecoming—it’s a reckoning. Still haunted by the night Morgan disappeared without a trace, Eden has spent too many days chasing ghosts.
But now, human remains have surfaced in the abandoned Raven’s Lake Mine, and Eden is done waiting for answers.
Lurking in the shadows is a predator known as The Collector—meticulous, patient, and always watching. For years, he has hunted in silence, choosing his victims carefully. And now, Eden’s search has put her in his sights.
As she follows the trail of a killer who has remained hidden for too long, the past begins to unravel in ways she never expected. But in a town where everyone has secrets, the truth is more terrifying than she ever imagined—and someone will do anything to keep it buried.
What really happened to Juliet Keller?
Sidelined and angry after a domestic violence call-out went horribly wrong, Bonnie finds herself begrudgingly seconded to a team searching for a missing woman.
According to her husband, Juliet Keller went to the grocery store and never returned. He demands action, but his controlling behaviour have Bonnie’s family violence radar on high alert. Convinced he’s responsible for Juliet’s disappearance, Bonnie is single-minded in her mission to disprove his story.
Outsmarted at every turn, and questioning her worth to her new team, Bonnie finds herself in a cat-and-mouse chase to uncover the truth. Because whatever happened to Juliet Keller, it’s soon clear her life is not the only one on the line…
Bonnie Hunter has dedicated her career to locking up rapists.
While her track record for putting them behind bars is second-to-none, one particularly nasty character has eluded her for years. His penchant for cutting out the tongues of his victims to stop them talking has made him rather difficult to catch.
But he’s just made his first mistake.
Cooper and Quinn have their own problems. With a vigilante killer amongst them, they’re racing the clock to figure out who’s taking justice into their own hands before the press get wind of it and send the vigilante to ground.
Thrown together when the rapist commits his first murder, Bonnie, Cooper, and Quinn team up to stop a ruthless killer with a fresh taste for blood. But will they catch him before the vigilante does?
“Steady now. Focus.
Look down the barrel. Breathe out. Relax.
When I count to three: Start shooting. One… Two…”
London Baines has it all. His ‘real-life’ TV show. All the money he’ll ever need—thanks to his wealthy father, Herbert. And someone hiding in the wings who’d rather see him as a corpse.
In the beginning, Herbert’s fears for his son’s safety seem like parental overreaction. But Rafferty witnesses a visceral new threat to the heart of the Baines family and realizes the only chance at keeping London alive is to take him out of view.
When London disappears from right under Rafferty’s nose, a happy ending seems farther away than ever. Can Rafferty flip the script, bring London home, and reunite father and son? Or will the bad actors succeed in canceling London’s run—permanently?
A love story based on crime, violence, and murder?
Yup, that’s got us written all over it.
We’re Bill and Cat, from Newcastle, Australia.
Our books are an ongoing love letter to crime fiction and all the characters who refuse to give up, who keep fighting on no matter how deep the crap gets.
Why so passionate about crime fiction? Because we owe our it our lives.
We’re sure you’ve seen those author bios like: “Before becoming a writer, so-and-so was a bond trader, iguana breeder, underwater welder & chainsaw juggler.”
Likewise, we both had previous lives, jobs, and careers before writing. Architecture, quality control, consumer advocation, and project management, and a few others we’d prefer to forget.
But—just like the characters we now write about—life had other plans…
Social media made them famous. A killer will make them silent.
Less than a month ago, FBI Special Agent Eden Cross uncovered the dark truth buried in her hometown—and it changed everything. But there’s no time to grieve. As the BAU’s newest recruit, she’s struggling to find her place on the elite profiling team and adapt to her sudden cross-country transfer.
And a new nightmare is already beginning.
A ruthless serial killer is hunting social media influencers across New York City, leaving behind a gruesome signature: their lips sewn shut and #shutup carved into their flesh. As the body count rises, Eden’s relentless drive for the truth puts her at odds with her new team—and right into the crosshairs of a killer who thrives on attention.
With every clue she uncovers, the case grows more dangerous—threatening not just Eden’s place in the BAU, but her life. The clock is ticking, and with every post, every hashtag, The Silencer moves closer.
A gripping thriller perfect for fans of Lisa Regan, Mary Stone, and Elle Gray.
