The Killing Hour: A Thriller (Christchurch Noir Crime Series)

â€œAnyone who likes their crime fiction on the black and bloody side should move Paul Cleave straight to the top of their must-read listâ€ (Mark Billingham, award-winning author of the Tom Thorne crime series).

Imagine waking up covered in bloodâ€”but itâ€™s not your blood. Thereâ€™s a nasty bump on your head, and you canâ€™t remember a thing about last night. The morning paper reports that two young women were brutally murdered. You recognize their names. Pieces of the night before come back to you through the haze. And now youâ€™re the suspect in their grisly deaths. Welcome to Charlieâ€™s world.

In this heart-pounding thriller, only the dead know what happened last night. On the run, Charlie suspects a man named Cyris, but no one believes that Cyris exists. Not the police and not Charlieâ€™s ex-wife Jo, though she wants to trust that the man she once loved is innocent. Soon, Charlie has Jo bound and gagged in the trunk of his car, fleeing across the countryside while the killing hour approaches yet again.

Originally published in 2007 in Cleaveâ€™s native New Zealand, The Killing Hour represents the early, â€œpulse-poundingâ€ (Publishers Weekly) work of a writer known the world over for a style that combines gruesome thrills with clever twists and a heavy dose of devilish humor. Cleave keeps us guessing until the last page of this fantastic psychological thriller.
