australia international murder mystery mystery-thriller

Professor Israel Wren doesn't think Roxanne Duncan died of snakebite on Dangar Island — no matter what anybody says. And he's right... 

Hardboiled DI Scott McKinnon takes an instant dislike to the fastidious Israel and his conspiracy theories and looks ready to sign the case off as an accident.

Driven by his sense of justice and the demon that visits him in his sleep, Israel launches his own investigation into Roxanne's death, dragging along his Aussie mate Gary, who was hoping this island holiday might have been more fishing and cricket than secrets and intrigue.
 
Can the professor prove Roxanne’s death was no accident? Will he and Gary be able to corner the killer before more people die? Join them on an island full of suspicious locals, teenage goths and deadly serpents — an island named Dangar.

Packed with quirky characters, Death on Dangar Island delivers an up-tempo murder mystery in a contemporary Australian setting.All Rights Reserved

Near Miss by InolienKiki

At precisely 9:27 PM, Malachi Lindquist's coworker watched him leave work. At 9:50, while cycling, he was hit by a car and killed near the entrance to a park, six miles away. The case would have been completely dismissed by the Seattle police department, if not for a bizarre time discrepancy: the restaurant where Malachi works and the park where he was found dead are forty minutes away by bike. Through a secondhand connection, Rhiannon Valdez, problem-solver and geek medical student, becomes once again embroiled in a suspicious death. Working quietly to avoid the attention of an obnoxious police detective, Rhiannon is determined to figure out who's lying and why. Sylvie Stein, Rhiannon's investigative partner, is hard at work on her own case: someone is trying to kill Magdalen Hawk, but their attempts are carried out so poorly that Magdalen herself is happy to laugh it off. With the help of her best friend and police informant Rorie Redmond, Sylvie's investigations turn up a wild scattering of motives... but even her impeccable logic can't seem to find anyone with the opportunity to kill Magdalen. As the mystery deepens and the cases begin to look less and less like accidents, Rhiannon and Sylvie learn the truth about their investigative talents: to truly solve such a complex problem, they must turn to each other.
