MEET JOE VENN. THE OMEGA DOG.

Joe Venn is down on his luck. A Marine and police detective lieutenant, he was kicked off the Chicago force for getting a little heavy-handed while cleaning up the streets. Now he's eking out a living as a private eye in downtown Manhattan, on a road to nowhere.

His life's about to get a whole lot worse...

When Venn is arrested for a murder he didn't commit, he's given a choice.

Track down a missing professor of neurochemistry, in an operation that's so politically sensitive even the FBI can't be allowed to touch it.

Or face life in prison.

Dr Beth Colby is having a bad day, too.

She's used to dealing with death, in her job as a physician at one of New York City's busiest hospitals. But two people she knows have just died mysteriously in the space of twenty-four hours.

And before the day's out, Beth herself will become the target of a shocking attack.

Events conspire violently to throw Venn and Beth together, and soon they're locked into a desperate race against time to uncover the secret of Professor Lomax's disappearance.

What's the connection with the research he's conducting into groundbreaking neuromodulatory drugs?

And why are Venn and Beth being hunted by not one but two professional assassins - as well as by the most powerful organized crime family in New York?

As the chase spreads from Manhattan to New England and back again, and the net closes relentlessly in on Venn and Beth, each of them must use their unique set of skills to the maximum.

Not just to uncover the terrible secret so many people are desperate to keep hidden.

But also simply to stay alive...

Relentless in its action, terrifying in its suspense, and riddled with twist upon shocking twist, OMEGA DOG is a heartstopping rollercoaster ride that will thrill and chill you in equal measure.

OMEGA DOG is the first book in the bestselling Joe Venn crime thriller series.

Tim Stevens is the author of the highly acclaimed thrillers RATCATCHER, DELIVERING CALIBAN, JOKERMAN, SEVERANCE KILL and ANNIHILATION MYTHS.
