THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION MEETS NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN IN THIS ASTOUNDING STANDALONE THRILLER FROM THE NO.1 AUSTRALIAN BESTSELLER
Why would a man escape from prison the day before his release?
Audie Palmer has spent a decade in prison for an armed robbery in which four people died, including two of the gang. Seven million dollars were never recovered and everybody believes that Audie knows where the money is.
For ten years he has been beaten, stabbed and threatened by prison guards and inmates, who all want to know his secret. But suddenly Audie vanishes, the day before he’s due to be released.
Everybody wants to find Audie, but he’s not running. Instead he’s trying to save a life . . . and not just his own.

I love this guy's books. Try this one and you'll see why
Damn near perfect
One of the best thrillers you will read this year
[A] superbly exciting thriller... Beautifully written and full of poignancy
Life or Death is a nerve-shredding thriller with the heart and soul so often missing from lesser crime and suspense novels. I couldn't stop reading, yet I didn't want Audie's story to end. Robotham is an absolute master.
