The Fragile Cage: Cameron Kyle 1

By Scott Hunter

A brand new series from CWA award-winning author, Scott Hunter

April 1968. Detective Constable Cameron Kyle is hit by a bullet at a bungled stakeout.

He survives, but his mild, unassuming personality has vanished, replaced by a post-traumatic, near-psychotic truculence.

Worse still, the bullet fragment lodged in his brain could kill him at any moment.

When a dangerous crime lord kidnaps Kyle's ex-fianc e in a daring prison break and a senior detective is murdered in his apartment, the convalescing Kyle is plunged into a frantic manhunt that leads to an explosive confrontation with an even deadlier antagonist, the elusive criminal mastermind known only by his pseudonym, The Italian.

Under suspicion, Kyle must evade the pursuing police as he follows a series of baffling clues to track down the perpetrators.

But he has one distinct advantage: his head is a time bomb and he has nothing to lose.

For fans of JM Dalgliesh, Lee Child, Mark Dawson, and David Baldacci, The Fragile Cage is a high-octane thriller packed with relentless action, black humor and edge-of-your-seat excitement.

★★★★★ 'A thriller from start to finish - highly recommended.'

★★★★★ 'A pell-mell flurry of unpredictable action laced with acerbic humor. Paced to perfection.'

★★★★★ 'The author's style matches the uncaring, tart unpredictability of his hero. Perfectly pitched.'
