The city never stopped bleed. Neither did he.
Dragged from the quiet of Greta back into Melbourne's blood-soaked streets, private investigator Jack Price is once again chasing the man who destroyed his life. His final memory before drowning in grief is his wife Paula dying in his arms.
When a desperate stranger begs for protection, Price is pulled straight into the underworld he tried to escape. The job should have been simple, but it collapses instantly: the client is executed aboard his own yacht, a mobster's son is killed, and someone is eliminating anyone with ties to Paula. With hitman Tommy Button at his side, Price follows a twisting trail that exposes Paula's secret.
Forced into an uneasy partnership with an AFP taskforce, Price uncovers rot far deeper than organized crime. Melanie, the only person he trusted, turns out to be an undercover officer investigating her own team. When she disappears, a covert AFP unit recruits Price to track her down.
Everything converges at the Purple Orchid brothel, where the truth finally breaks open.
Fast-paced, gritty, and packed with explosive action, Beneath the Concrete Jungle is the gripping first installment in Brent Towns' new Jack Price series. Perfect for fans of hard-boiled detective fiction, vigilante justice, and relentless crime thrillers, this is a novel where vengeance comes at a deadly price.
