SMALL MOUTH DEMON IS THE MOST ORIGINAL AND ENTERTAINING CRIME NOVEL YOU WILL READ THIS YEAR.

“Crypto currencies for the mainstream investor? I hate to break it to you, but if anything sounds like an oxymoron, Jimmy, then that’s it.”

Hawk, dissolute advertising creative wunderkind, is given the project that might just save his career, rescue him from debt, and put him on the fast track back to human dignity. All he has to do is create the brand for FOCXI, a new crypto start-up, and help launch it to the world. But the deeper he gets, the more Hawk has to wonder: is anything in the cryptoverse for real?

And, who’s killing his staff?

This darkly comic novel takes you inside a world where greed, gullibility, and graft intersect. Set against a sweltering New Zealand summer with an unforgettable cast of characters, razor-sharp dialogue, and page-turning action, Small Mouth Demon is the most entertaining crime novel you’ll read this year.
