Ayana is tasked with helping to rush Laika, to become the first dog to orbit the Earth. But Ayana is distracted by a quirky, artistic lab technician, Nikolai Yinski, and his affection for Laika and the other dogs in the program. Nikolai is a strapping Bohemian type, and the complete opposite of the straight-laced, scientific Ayana.

The suspense builds as their relationship blossoms into an erotic love affair and they find themselves in a thrilling race against time to save Laika from her potential doomed fate.

Blessed are the Peacemakers

 


Blessed are the Peacemakers


"Tell me about the last one."
"The last one, what?"
"The last kill."

The hitman who would never speak finally opens up. Cole wants his version of events to be told to the world before he dies. He's gotten away with unspeakable violence for years, protected and sanctioned by the mafia. As his world crumbles around him he fights back, driven by one desire: vengeance.

Bestselling and controversial author Luke Gherardi returns with his follow up to 
Children of Violence. This brutal portrayal of the dog eat dog landscape in a city's struggle for power challenges societal norms and speculates that maybe, just maybe, there are necessary evils needed for the greater good.

Content Warning: This book portrays violence, death and profanity. Reader discretion is advised.
