Description

Jonathan Little, an ex-criminal lawyer, suggests to his cellmate, Daniel Rodriguez, that they should hatch a plan to “get rid” of their wives – who they hate more than anything – for good.

Their plan is fool-proof and would be perfect if not for the tenacity of Daniel’s wife – the beautiful, courageous, life-embracing Janet Rodriguez.

What starts out as a vengeful plot turns into a story of misplaced love and recompense as both men face the women who absorbed most of their lives.

Uniquely Australian, this satire of love gone wrong is an elaborate thriller that begs the question: at what point is there no turning back?

Advance Praise

Praise for Lachlan Pirie-

"Pirie’s style is modern with a hint of magical realism... The Resolution could comfortably sit alongside Chris Hammer and Janet Harper in the realm of Australian noir. Highly recommended for readers who enjoy psychological thrillers." - David Thomas Kay, 4x international award-winning author.

“I felt I was in the hands of a storyteller who knew what he was doing and wasn’t going to waste my time. I was hooked by Lachlan’s characters, story, and way with words.” Mark Lamprell – Screenwriter of Babe: Pig in the City

“Pirie channels Quentin Tarantino with a decidedly Australian dialect and cheeky humor… The Resolution is a wild romp through the land down.” Seth Sjostrom – Author of Blood in the Snow
