As Jack, he’s best known for his series of Crime Thrillers starring Detective Inspector Declan Walsh, and the City of London Police department known as the Last Chance Saloon.

The first fourteen of these, LETTER FROM THE DEAD, MURDER OF ANGELS, HUNTER HUNTED, WHISPER FOR THE REAPER, TO HUNT A MAGPIE, A RITUAL FOR THE DYING, KILLING THE MUSIC, A DINNER TO DIE FOR, BEHIND THE WIRE, HEAVY IS THE CROWN, STALKING THE RIPPER, A QUIVER OF SORROWS, MURDER BY MISTLETOE and BENEATH THE BODIES are available now, with book fifteen, KILL YOUR DARLINGS released in July 2023.

In addition to that, the first book in a new series of Adventure Mysteries starring Robin-Hood style con-man forger-turned treasure hunter Damian Lucas, THE LIONHEART CURSE was released in January 2022, and he has both a new series of crime procedurals spinning out of the DI Walsh series; the first featuring ‘Cop for Criminals’ Ellie Reckless, including PAINT THE DEAD and STEAL THE GOLD, and a new spy series featuring burned MI5 agent Tom Marlowe including SLEEPING SOLDIERS and TARGET LOCKED. He also has a completely standalone thriller out named THE BOADROOM.

But, rather than expecting you to instantly buy a book, it’s only fair that you can read a sample of Jack’s work.

So, if you join the Jack Gatland Readers Group, you’ll receive a free DI Walsh ebook – LIQUIDATE THE PROFITS – a full story and a prequel to LETTER FROM THE DEAD!

Please note, that this is also the only way to read this book individually, as it will not be for sale alone on Amazon!

Jack hopes you enjoy it, and hopes to share many more Declan Walsh adventures with you.
