SYNOPSIS


When second best is all you can afford and a half-assed job will suffice, you need Jimmy Eyebrow – Budget Hitman.

Stumbling into the hit business purely by accident, this low-rent, convicted underwear thief burst onto the contract killer scene with a ferocity rarely seen - at least that's what everyone thinks. But as the bodies soon begin piling up in his wake, the question must be asked - is the carnage actually by Eyebrow's hand?

Discreet Rear Entrance Volumes one and two, the first two books of the Jimmy Eyebrow series, track his genesis as a hitman, dragging his reluctant and highly risk-averse handler Joe Purple along with him as things spiral completely out of control.  Somehow, Eyebrow manages to light the fuse of chaos wherever he goes and it’s not long before all the lines begin to converge, with Eyebrow firmly in the middle.

Yet despite the chaos he left in his wake after the events of Discreet Rear Entrance, the idiocy and misadventure is ramped up in The Full Package when an old friend turns up seeking Eyebrow’s assistance with what should be a simple task. It doesn't take long before Eyebrow finds himself up to his neck in an affair far beyond his pay grade, and, as usual, he has dragged his unsuspecting travelling companions along with him for the ride.

The latest instalment in the Eyebrow collection - Blood in the Cheese - is a compendium of twelve short stories and novellas that chronicle the chaotic world of three of the main pizza shops in the Eyebrow universe - Angelo's, Giorgio's and Gino's. Along the way we get a more in-depth look into some of the most beloved characters from the previous books and learn that some things in Eyebrow's world may not necessarily be as they seem.

ABOUT LOU POWERS

Ex soldier, sports coach, former IT professional, previously unemployed bum and one-time pizza delivery driver who once fell agonizingly short of the one-night delivery record at the shop that served as inspiration for one of the settings in this book, Lou Powers weaves aspects of his entire life into his stories, often drawing on real-life experiences for inspiration.

In full understanding that his works are as likely to win a literary award as he is of being appointed the Archbishop of Canterbury, he instead hopes simply that you get enjoyment out of his stories and read them through the same ridiculous lens with which they were written.

  • Lifelong resident of Tasmania
  • Family man with 3 children
  • Writes part-time
  • Manages the entire writing, editing and publishing process himself
  • Leans more towards being a "pantser" than a "plotter"
  • Loves writing stories that are fun to read - no moral messages, no activism - just simple escapism
