Author: DB Martin

Title: Patchwork Man

\xa0

He has a brilliant future ahead of him and a dangerous past behind him. Now someone is spilling his secrets...

\xa0

But she's already dead.

\xa0

Renowned British barrister, Lawrence Juste, is a man with a past so cleverly stitched together he thought it could never come unravelled - until now.

\xa0

Two things are about to pick it apart, piece by sordid piece: a child, and a blackmail note from a woman hiding as many secrets as him.

\xa0

As Lawrence\u2019s world collapses in a twisting conspiracy of mysteries, lies and revelations, in the wreckage he encounters a child who reminds him sinisterly of himself, the family he'd denied and a secret even he wasn\u2019t aware of. For all of them, the repercussions could be lethal unless Lawrence can find the dead woman who knows everything about him, and the psychotic enemy from his past determined to destroy him and everything he comes to care about.

\xa0

Patchwork Man is the winner of a BRAG Medallion Award.
