Detective Jack Creed needs to stop this attack. He’s got 48 hours to stop the perpetrator or witness Australia’s greatest mass University shooting. Australian author C T Mitchell is Australia's newest detective mystery, suspense and thriller writer with crime fiction plots centred around the seaside town of Cabarita Beach and the Northern Rivers District, in far north New South Wales, Australia.
