Jim Harris is a hard-drinking Australian detective on his way to a nervous breakdown. Every day, he works alongside corrupt police and dangerous crooks. That is, until a brutal murder case unravels his career, bringing past indiscretions to light. Alone, afraid and out-of-control, Harris makes a pact with himself: solve the case or die trying.

Industry Reviews

"Ryan's prose is impressively understated: brisk and razor-sharp throughout, and his knack for nastiness and corruption recalls early James Ellroy. If you are sick of flabby police procedurals this grim novella is a welcome antidote. Make no mistake, Four Days trims away the fat and cuts to the f*cking bone." - Tom Leins, Dirty Books

"Four Days is something more than just a formulaic run through of required elements. Written in a sparse, pointed, slightly ironic style it seamlessly folds a quintessentially Australian sensibility and location into a sub-genre that's more synonymous with the mean streets of the US." - Karen Chisholm, AustCrime

"Four Days is not for everyone but I recommend it." - Andrew Nette, Pulp Curry

"Iain Ryan is a star and FOUR DAYS is a brutal debut novel that you won't be able to pry yourself away from" -Benoît Lelievre, DEAD END FOLLIES
