    About this series

    A loved professor is found shot dead in her home. Her student is murdered whilst he’s working at the hospital. And Jack Stryker’s partner Kate is being secretly harassed. Can he get to the bottom of this dark mystery in Paula Gosling’s third and final Jack Stryker novel?

    Whilst the professor’s case looks like a domestic homicide and the student’s looks like a mugging gone wrong, nothing is really as it seems in this intense and puzzling thriller.

    Stryker’s instincts seem to be leading him awry but could the two barbarous murders be interlinked? Jack Stryker follows a dangerous trail to find out in Ricochet.

      Now, in the blank-faced and mazed city, death had become vicious and secret and cold. Somewhere out there, an ego was coiled, waiting. Winner of a Golden Dagger award, Paula Gosling’s Monkey Puzzle introduces us to Detective Lieutenant Jack Stryker. An obsessive cop, an oddball, and (occasionally) a genius. When Grantham University’s most unpopular professor is viciously murdered there are a myriad of potential suspects, and one of whom happens to be connected to Stryker’s past . . . The murderous attacks continue. The city and the campus panic. Stryker is trapped in a maze of conflicting motives, emotions and clues. And at the center of the maze awaits – a monster.

      A person who would kill a cop respects no-one. A person who would kill a cop would kill anyone. Four cops, from four precincts, all shot dead. A chaotic wave is erupting through the American police force in Paula Gosling’s second Jack Stryker novel, Backlash. When a federal investigator appears on the killer’s hit list, the simple answers seem to be disappearing way too fast and time is running out. Are these homicides linked? Or is the killer choosing victims at random? Can the police department computer make any connections that stick? Detective Lieutenant Jack Stryker is on the case with his partner Agent Dana Marchant, and together they must track a marksman with an uncanny criminal brain and a ruthlessly persistent purpose.
