The Paris Ripper
The first Chief Inspector Belmont mystery.
Slick and evocative, The Paris Ripper is a period thriller of the highest calibre.
Eva Dolan, author of After You Die and Tell No TalesTough, robust and authentic, the streets of 1930’s Paris are masterfully evoked in this first outing for Chief Inspector Belmont. With a killer who needs stopping, it’s chilling, tense and dangerous, and marks the start of an exciting new series.
NICK QUANTRILL, author of the Joe Geraghty seriesA gruesome murder starts a labyrinthine investigation that digs below Paris' glittery surface and unearths the city's dark underbelly. The Paris Ripper is a vivid and gripping slice of historical crime fiction.

Salazar
Superbly evoking the atmosphere of 1930s Paris, Salazar is a taut and an engaging mystery novel from a great new writer. Lynch has created a classic anti-hero. Still carrying the scars of war, he’s the kind of man driven to do the right thing, regardless of the cost to himself in this engrossing debut novel”
Nick Quantrill, author of Broken Dreams and The Late Greats.Salazar combines the appeal of a colourful and fresh lead character with an intriguing Parisian setting at a fascinating moment in time. A promising debut.
