I have never read a Jack Heath novel before, and I am extremely grateful to have received this unedited advanced copy from Allen & Unwin.    Kill Your Brother, is a well written suspenseful thriller.   Entertaining and and on the edge of your seat excitement from the very first page.

The first chapter sets the scene for the remainder of the book.   Elise is injured and hurt, and has somebody tending to her wounds and bandaging her.     It turns out this person is Elise's captive, and the captive has also captured Elise's brother Callum whom Elise has been searching for.   Elise is soon given an ultimatum, her capturer will let her go free, on one condition, Elise must kill her brother.

Jack Heath captures our attention from the very first chapter with this shocking dilemma.

The reader then goes on to read and discover more about who is Elise and what her relationship is with her brother Callum.      

Elise is disliked in her home town, she is threatened continuously, she has had food thrown at her, poo put in her letterbox, her house broken into and she is being followed.   Elise reports it to the police, but she feels the police are sick of her phone calls and no longer will investigate the threats until Elise herself is dead.  

Elise's brother Callum, a local school teacher, goes missing and the police don't have any leads.   Elise decides to take matters into her own hands and track down her missing brother herself by posing as a private detective.   

Things turn ugly for Elise when she also becomes captured with her brother.   Nobody, will be looking for Elise, as the town and everyone she knows turns against her years ago.

Will Elise and Callum, come up with a plan to escape, or will Elise have to kill her brother?
