Head Case (A Tom Mondrian Story)

by RossArmstrong (Author)

Synopsis

`Quirky, offbeat, stylish and original. I loved it.' Mick Herron Tom Mondrian is the last person you want on your case. And the only one who can solve it, in this quirky psychological thriller.

Tom Mondrian is watching his life ebb away directing traffic as a PCSO, until a bullet to the brain changes everything. With a new unusual perspective, including an inability to recognise faces and absolutely no filter between what he thinks and what he says, Tom's career is suddenly shifting gear.

Tom's new condition gives him an advantage over other police officers, allowing him to notice details that they can't see. Now, with his new insight and unwavering determination, Tom is intent on saving three missing girls, before more start to disappear...

Media Reviews

Praise for Head Case:

`Absolutely loved Head Case. Couldn't put it down. Tragic, funny and frightening. Ross Armstrong has written another cracker.' Chris Whitaker, CWA New Blood Dagger winning author of Tall Oaks.

`Ross Armstrong has created a brilliant hero in Tom, and this novel is an enjoyable addition to the psychological thriller genre. Five Stars.' Heat

Praise for The Watcher:

`An eerily atmospheric reworking of Hitchcock's Rear Window' The Guardian on The Watcher

`Addictive and eerie, you'll finish the book wanting to chat about it' Closer Magazine, Must Read

`Ross Armstrong will feed your appetite for suspense' Evening Standard

`Unreliable narrator + Rear Window-esque plot = sure-fire hit' The Sun

`Brilliantly written...this psychological thriller is definitely one that will keep you up to the early hours. Five Stars.' Heat, Book of the Week
