Tito Ihaka, the unkempt, overweight Maori cop was demoted to Sergeant due to insubordination and pigheadedness. He investigates the unsolved killing of 17 year old girl at an election night party in a ritzy villa near Auckland. Ihaka is also embroiled in a very personal mystery. A freelance journalist has stumbled across information that Ihaka's father Jimmy, a trade union firebrand and renegade Marxist, didn't die of natural causes. The stories weave themselves into an exciting climax in an atmosphere of political maneuvering and intrigue surrounding the USA's confrontation with New Zealand over its anti-nuclear stance.

Industry Reviews

Praise for Fallout:
Winner of the antipodean Ned Kelly and Ngaio Marsh awards, Paul Thomas is the author of a series featuring Maori policeman Tito Ihaka.The various plotlines are adroitly woven into an eye-poppingly complicated whole in this sharp, unexpectedly funny police procedural with a cast of engaging characters, not least the maverick Ihaka himself.' Guardian

Praise for Death on Demand:
Ian Rankin tweets in January 2014:
"Finished reading Paul Thomas's 'Death on Demand' on flight to NY. Big, bruising police procedural set in New Zealand. Excellent." -- Ian Rankin (@Beathhigh

"Mazey, gripping plot, terrific maverick cop, violent, profane, funny."
-- Ian Rankin (@Beathhigh

"Ned Kelly Award-winner Thomas takes his time letting readers in on what he's got up his sleeve in this police procedural, but the deferred gratification is well worth it. Ihaka, who must deal with prejudice from within the force, investigates. A twisty plot and an unusual lead combine to make this a winner." Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
