The Lightning Rod (2022) is Ged Gillmore’s first standalone international thriller, separate from his Bill Murdoch Mystery series. Gillmore is an Australian-based author who writes crime fiction with a distinctive dry wit. His Bill Murdoch series, beginning with Headland (2017), earned critical attention and a Ned Kelly Award nomination for Class Act.
Gillmore studied languages and literature at the University of London and now divides his time between Australia, Ireland, and the UK. In addition to crime fiction, he has written children’s books and the travel memoir Stans By Me. The Lightning Rod marks his move into standalone thriller territory after three connected Bill Murdoch mysteries.
