    About this ebook

    Kill or Be Killed, the first story in this book, and Who Killed Santa Claus? the last, are my favourites but they are all good. These are whodunits like no other. If you want straight and boring detectives who spend their time looking at fingerprints then these are not the books for you but if you want to read about a pair of crazy detectives more concerned about what they are going to eat next than who killed who then jump in feet first. Surreal, crazy, good fun and totally mad, mad as all hell really.

    Reviews: 'Third in the Bigfoot, Littlefoot & West series sees the return of the three stooges for another laughathon of Murder, Madness & Mirth. From Tasmania to the Australian Outback, with Bigfoot reverting to his hippy past following a series of mishaps, the story zips from one hilarious scene to another, with a totally unexpected final twist. Highly recommended, a great holiday read.'

    'Detective Bigfoot is hilariously funny, ludicrously insane and ridiculously good fun. If you want a good belly laugh, and laughter is the best medicine, then you must read this book. '

    Anthony E Thorogood

    I was born in London England in 1953, which makes me a baby boomer I think. Dad ran a market stall in Woolwich’s Beresford Square selling anything and everything. A natural Cockney salesman with all the patter that goes with it but when he was told to give it up or die from the cold, we packed up shop and migrated to Australia.In my youth I always enjoyed my old Dad’s tales of his adventures in the navy in WWII and of his childhood hop picking in Kent, I got my love of storytelling from my Dad. I wrote a book on cider in 2008 after being awarded a Churchill Fellowship to travel around the world and drink and research cider, the cider book sold out. I followed the success of my cider book by writing a series of madcap comic extravaganzas: Bigfoot Littlefoot & West. I followed the Bigfoot books with my Jack Hamma action adventure series starting with Shakespeare on the Roof. Then in 2015 I wrote three romantic travel adventures starting with Sex Sardines and Sauerkraut.This is the bit where I state that I am happily living the good life on our 5 acre property, on the beautiful island of Tasmania, spending my time walking, cycling, planting trees, growing vegetables and writing the odd book, very odd some people say.
