Veteran detective Nathan Loch is brought in when a rogue sniper threatens the city. Loch knew it would be bad when they interrupted his day drinking. Four dead from a single shot, fired at long range. He hadn’t seen this kind of carnage since the war. No patterns, no links between victims. Nothing to go on but the weapon used. The entire city now sits in a sniper’s crosshairs, and Loch has to shut them down before his new partner digs up things that should stay buried. Cold Bore is a blood soaked neo-noir detective thriller. Set in a post war 2090, with a transhumanist, cyberpunk aesthetic, set against a Gothic European backdrop. This science fiction crime thriller delivers a gripping plot, explosive action, and a pitch black sense of humour.

Veteran detective Nathan Loch is forced out of retirement when the grotesque signature of long dead serial killer returns. In the years he’d spent deep in a bottle, the city he fought a war to save had changed. Cybernetic augmentation had become commonplace, fashionable even. He hated the arm that never felt like his own. The last thing he did as a cop was shoot The Artist dead. Now the killings are happening again. The macabre displays of flesh and Chrome have returned, spreading the same fear through the city. Loch agreed to walk the crime scene because he knew, in his bones, The Artist was dead.
