A thief in debt.
A family built on lies.
And a ring worth killing for.
Larry is a thief-for-hire with a problem he can't steal his way out of.
He owes a gangster-and the only way to clear the debt is to recover a stolen ring. A small job, on paper. Except the ring leads straight back to the family Larry walked away from years ago, and to a sister who wants nothing to do with him.
As Larry digs deeper into the city's criminal underbelly, old friendships fracture and long-buried secrets surface. Every step toward the ring drags him further into the past he's been running from-and closer to a violent reckoning he may not survive.
With time running out and a bullet waiting at the end of his debt, Larry must decide what he's willing to sacrifice: the fragile life he's built, or the family that hollowed him out long ago.
Moorlands is a dark, psychologically driven crime novel about obligation, blood ties, and the cost of survival. Gritty, atmospheric, and steeped in northern noir, it explores what happens when the secrets that bind a family finally come due.
Perfect for readers who like their crime fiction bleak, intimate, and unforgiving.
Praise for Moorlands
Moorlands is a tight, atmospheric crime thriller with a strong sense of melancholy.

Electric.
- Ed James, author of the bestselling Scott Cullen series
This book has some serious grip. It sinks its teeth into the reader fast and hangs on. Solid throughout, visceral.
- D.S. Atkinson
If you want crime fiction you can really sink your teeth into, look no further than Jason Beech.
