God Puppet | Paperback - Preorder (Signed by the Author)

Brisbane, 2007. Some men inherit money. Jamie Webster inherited a system designed to turn him into a weapon.

Jamie works receivals in a freight warehouse by day and fights for cash in back rooms at night. He takes pills to sleep, loses hours he can’t account for, and has learned not to ask why certain shipments bypass the paperwork.

Then bodies start surfacing.

A corrupt detective knows more about Jamie than he should. A bikie syndicate insists he owes debts he never signed up for. And an old man from his mother’s past appears with an unsettling interest in Jamie’s fights, his missing memories, and the father who died when Jamie was seven.

The deeper Jamie digs, the less accidental his life begins to look.

The pills.

The fights.

The warehouse.

The river.

Someone has been keeping records.

And Jamie is starting to understand that he didn’t just stumble into Brisbane’s criminal underworld.

He was raised for it.

But discovering who built him is only the beginning. Because the most dangerous thing about a system designed to manufacture violence isn’t what happens when its subject breaks free.

It’s what happens when he decides to take control.

Set among the freight yards, fight clubs, bikie clubhouses, and the waterways of Brisbane, this is a brutal Australian crime thriller about addiction, corrupted memory, inherited violence, and the terrible distance between being used and becoming useful.

For readers of Chris Hammer’s The Seven and J.P. Pomare’s In the Clearing.
