From the #1 Australian bestselling author of Still comes a compelling and cinematic crime thriller that takes us from Sydney to New York in the heady 1980s.
The cloth that was over his head and tied tightly around his neck smelled like the army disposal store he'd been to with his father. Lying on the floor of the van, hands tied behind his back, he closed his eyes and breathed in the kerosene-like scent of the sack, and wished he was back there again. Back with his father on a Sunday afternoon ...
They say your life flashes before your eyes just before you die. For Dan Milligan it isn't his life ... it's memories of his dad.
Dan has spent his whole life chasing something. Fast cars, leggy blondes, the rush of making a lot of money and the cocaine high to celebrate. But as the stock market plummets in 1987, his world comes crashing down.
A new life on the South Coast isn't too bad. Mowing lawns is good, honest work. Most days. But other days, he tells himself he'll get back in the game. He'll get his head together, get his mojo back and master the market again. He just needs some luck. Then one day ... his luck changes. And suddenly he has a choice.
Dan has no idea what he could unleash on his life, himself and his family. Or how far he will go to find a way back.
A page-turning thriller, Mire takes us from the testosterone-fuelled stock market floor in 1980s Sydney to the coastal green hills of the NSW South Coast and onto the Mafia-ruled streets of New York. The body count is high - and the stakes are even higher.
