Pre-Buzz on SWITCH

‘Wow!
Loved it … desperately wanted more after racing through the first 130 pages. Fast, thrilling, gripping, scary…When can I read the rest?
— Gavin Hilzbrich

This book is so cinematic . . . due to the punchy dialogue and the succession of crisp, sharp images which drive the narrative forward. I want to read more!
— Sam Eades

This is absolutely brilliant! A very compelling read but I was upset when I got to the last page because I wanted more!
— Jeanette Slinger

I can't stand crime novels that have a long preamble before getting to the action and this one certainly doesn't disappoint in that way. From page one it's straight in there, bish bash bosh and continues on in that vein, so you are frantically turning the pages to find out what happens next.
— Sandra Hawe

The material I read was mad, frantic, super quick and entertaining.
— Martin Higgins

Gripping… Explosive… Page Turning…
And that’s only 140 pages in!!
— Darren Elliot

This was great - I really wanted to read on. Very much made me think of Simon Kernick and Relentless actually - same kind of ordinary guy suddenly finding his life turned upside down when he just comes home from work... Decidedly scary and asks some very dark questions: just how far would you go to save your family?
— Sue Cook

The Gallery

Uber Aussie crime writer Tara Moss has such a great gallery that I decided to emulate it here. Unfortunately I'm neither a gorgeous super-model nor all that comfortable posing nude with rather large snakes. I do, however, like to play around with Photoshop.

Getting my geek on! These three were self-portrait illustrations I created to accompany technology-humour articles I wrote for various Canadian newspapers and magazines.
Marry Me - Again This was an original digital painting on canvas that I created in celebration of my wife and I's 20th wedding anniversary in 2007.
Okotoks I See This was an original large-scale digital watercolour painting that I created when I lived in Okotoks, Alberta. The town liked it so much that town council bought it and hung it in the new Millennium Centre. It is approximately four-feet wide on watercolour paper.
