L.R. Currell (Currell) | 7 comments G'day all,
I am offering my book, The killer from Manilla (country town not country capital) to any reader who is willing to do a review on Good Reads and/or Amazon. (If you have an account there)

If you want to review it elsewhere that is fine by me, just please let me know where you review it.

It is my debut novel and is set in Australia (with some location names changed)

I will put the blurb and other info below, thanks.

The killer from Manilla:

It's only book one and the bodies are already piling up.

Paul Walden is a recently discharged, combat veteran who agrees to leave the army quietly after a scam he was part of is exposed.

In return for keeping his mouth shut, he is promised handsome rewards and a cushy job.

Sadly this turns out to not be the case.
He is given a job working the night shift in a factory performing manual labor. During this time he is fed only scraps from the table where he formally sat.

His brother is in jail, his girlfriend is becoming increasingly distant and his former boss is not keeping his word. Paul's life parodies a country and western song.

Paul struggles to readjust to the civilian world and experiences one letdown after another.

With the bills piling up and fate playing her hand, Paul soon utilizes his skills as a trained killer. He begins to believe that becoming a hit man could be the answer to his problems.

It offers a new start and the opportunity for unparalleled wealth but will he live to regret his decisions? Even worse, will he end up dead in a gutter? Or will his best friend, a former soldier turned police officer catch him in the act?


The killer from Manilla is the first book in "The soldier turns hit man" series.

Graphic and somewhat gory in nature, this book contains violence. Not recommended for persons under 15 years of age.(less)
