Join us for the launch of Alan Carter's new novel, Franz Josef, a thriller that will pull you into a world of natural disasters, international secrets and calculated M**der.
DS Nick Chester returns with a new case that will test his limits.
The tiny South Island town of Franz Josef is perched precariously on New Zealand’s Alpine Fault. It already faces devastating earthquakes, floods and landslides. And now it harbours a killer.
When a body is discovered suspended in a glacier, detectives Nick Chester and Latifa Rapata are sent to investigate. More victims surface, as does a web of corruption stretching from the international aid industry to the blood-steeped fields of a civil war.
Come along to this free event and hear Alan Carter speak about his writing process and latest novel. Copies will be available for purchase from Not Just Books on the night - chat to Alan as he signs them for you.
