About The Shadow Broker
The latest thrilling read from New Zealand crime writer Tina Clough is another page-turning, fly-by-the-seat-of-your pants read!
Does the Kill List exist? And if it does, how would you know if you were on it?
Coded messages on a found burner phone, top-level government corruption and a shadowy mastermind who calls himself The Broker.
Three unlikely friends start quietly looking for connections and set in motion a deadly game of hide and seek that will change their lives forever.
In 2026 – in a climate of curtailed individual freedoms and with state surveillance everywhere, trying to uncover the truth means risking your life – and nothing is more dangerous than searching for evidence of government corruption.
Praise for Tina Clough’s previous books:
‘Pacy page-turning read with good twists and a satisfying ending.’ Author Trish McCormack. ‘An impressive debut.’ Beattie’s Blog
‘A story full of energy that draws the reader in.’ Otago Daily Times
‘Hunter Grant is our very own Jack Reacher.’ Reviewer Louise Ward
‘The Chinese Proverb is a top-notch thriller, with a powerful emotional element.’ Millwater Magazine
‘Plenty of action, great characterisation and very believable characters. This is a thriller, a whodunnit, at times scary and violent, edge of the seat stuff but constantly tempered by the relationships between Hunter and Dao, Charlie and the two sisters. So much packed into 300 pages. It is a great story, which deserves to be widely read and publicised.’ NZ Booksellers
‘One Single Thing is a fantastic thriller, and I hope Tina Clough has more books planned with Hunter and Dao for the future.’ NZ Booklovers
One Single Thing was Longlisted for the 2020 Ngaio Marsh Crime Writing Prize. The judges said: ‘Immersive storytelling, the relationships between the characters, not just the main protagonists, is fascinating. I read it on the train, look up and have no idea where I am.’
‘This is a novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the last page.’ NZ Booklovers
