Author C T Mitchell is an Amazon bestselling author of mystery short reads and novels with a thriller edge.
He is multiple 5 star recipient in the 2017 Readers Choice Awards for his novel Murder Secret (formerly published as Breaking Point).
Street educated, Australian-born C T Mitchell has traveled the world in his business dealings as a real estate negotiator encountering many interesting characters; some outright crooks. He brings these experiences as well as a love for mystery thrillers to his writing.
His fast-paced Detective Jack Creed Mysteries weave together traditional police procedural practice, global locations, and a hint of thrillers. Described by readers as “Rebus in a Valentino suit” Jack Creed is the ‘hard copper’ you want on your case.
