The author

Andrew Veysey

Andrew Veysey grew up in New Zealand’s Bay of Plenty and spent many years in the police force, where he saw first-hand what organised crime does to a community.

That experience runs through his fiction. The incidents are invented, the names are changed, but the weight of the job is real.
