Terrific...highly recommended. LEE CHILD. ...more twists than a pretzel. ...a gritty, action-packed, page-turner. ANDY MCNAB. High-octane...Great debut. SUNDAY TIMES CRIME CLUB. The bullet in his brain isn't the problem. She is. Michael North is a hero, with a bullet in the brain to prove it. A bullet which has rewired his neural pathways and heightened his sense of intuition. A bullet which is driving him mad. Working for an extra-governmental agency called The Board, North knows one thing for sure. He is very good at killing very bad guys. But what happens when a hero is ordered to kill a good woman rather than a bad man? Because it turns out that rising political star, Honor Jones, MP, can't stop asking the right questions about the wrong people. He should follow orders. Shouldn't he? ...fast-paced, packed with action, and introduces a series hero to watch. MICK HERRON

Book Overview: A SundayTimes Crime Club March 'pick'. Reviewed as a great debut and high-octane . (Newsletter out to 10k subscribers.) Selected by India Knight as a recommended read in her Sunday Times Magazine column - described as gripping and twisty . The book is expected to attract more publicity in the national press because of its topicality (including a UK which is post Trump and post Brexit, internment, social media dumps, and nano-drones.) There will also be strong North East regional coverage because of Judith's regional profile and the fact the novel is set between London and the North-East of England. The thriller already has a social media presence courtesy of a successful blog tour and the early release of the ebook. (It made the UK Kindle bestsellers). Key social media giveaways are planned to coincide with the paperback launch. Killing State is also expected to feature in the Mail on Sunday, the Sunday Times, theTimes and the Shots ezine.
