HIT ME: Introducing the world to Barnabas Wild

by Alex Brown

Hit Me! by Alex Brown, is a darkly comic crime thriller that takes the reader on a whirlwind cat and mouse chase from the dark criminal underbelly of Edinburgh to the scenic beauty of the Scottish Highlands - and back.

When ex-boxer Barnabas Wild is told he has terminal cancer and only a month to live, the thought of dying in a hospital bed proves too much. Barney asks childhood friend turned crime boss, Roman Rock, to put a hit on him instead. Roman reluctantly agrees, but when the hospital calls a week later to admit to a shocking mix-up in results, where the hell is Roman to cancel the hit?

About the author

I write romantic comedies and emotional love stories set in escapist locations and can’t wait to whisk you away to a gorgeous Greek island in the sun in my brand new novel, Bring Me Sunshine, when it’s published on June 6th.

I’ve written 15 bestselling books, including the No.1 Kindle UK bestsellers Cupcakes at Carrington’s and The Secret of Orchard Cottage, and the international No.1 paperback bestsellers A Postcard From Italy and A Postcard From Capri. My novels have been published in 22 countries, hit the number one spot in three countries, been shortlisted for a Romantic Novelists Association award and have sold over a million copies.

I live by the sea on the south coast of England with my family and when I’m not writing or reading, you’ll find me walking on the beach or binge-watching a boxset.

Great book

Absolutely brilliant read.
Loved the edinburgh dialect. Good story with quite a few laugh out loud moments. Bring on the next book.
