Doom Creek

Sergeant Nick Chester has dodged the Geordie gangsters he once feared and is out of hiding and looking forward to the quiet life. But gold fever is creating ill feeling between prospectors, and a new threat lurks in the form of trigger-happy Americans preparing for doomsday by building a bolthole in the valley. As tensions simmer, Nick finds himself up against an evil that knows no borders and no depths.

In his spare time he plunges into the icy Tasmanian waters for fun. He is the author of four Cato Kwong novels, Prime Cut, Getting Warmer, Bad Seed, and Heaven Sent, and the Nick Chester novel, Marlborough Man, set in NZ. Doom Creek is the second in the Nick Chester series.
