James Moloney
Dylan Kane has never met his father. But he has met Kirsty Beal’s step-father. And Kirsty’s step-father is a brute of a man: a bully, a living-room thug and maybe much worse. So how far will someone go to put a stop to the violence and intimidation? Would they stop at murder?
Kill the Possum might be the most intense book you will read all year. The characters are real, they could be your neighbours. And when Dylan and Kirsty’s brother Tim are put under extreme pressure, they will do just about anything to bring calm back into their lives. The problem is that to be secure Dylan and Tim must take frighteningly dangerous risks. And when does one evil cancel out another? What is a lesser evil?
Author James Moloney is a master storyteller. Kill the Possum will have you hanging on not just to the last page but to the very last word.
