Mark Mupotosa Russell - "The Hitwoman's Guide To Reducing Household Debt"
โจ MARK MUPOTOSA-RUSSELL โจ

Join me as I interview debut author @markwillrussell about his brilliantly dark thriller THE HITWOMANโS GUIDE TO REDUCING HOUSEHOLD DEBT for the @readingbycandlelight podcast (as always, ๐๐ฝ๐ผ๐ถ๐น๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ!)
Mark and I had a fun half hour chatting about how he came up with such an original plot, how to make a contract killer seem empathetic and how he used his screenwriting experience and love of movies to create this brilliantly original story that asks us how far we would go to revenge the people we love.
I was incredibly excited (and not surprised) to learn Mark has secured a pre-emptive screen deal with a major producer ๐คฏ although further details are under wraps for now shhh
This book is like ๐พ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐ฃ๐ meets ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ข๐ด๐ต๐ญ๐ฆ - in turns funny, tragic, deeply thoughtful and occasionally violent, it is also quintessentially Australian. Superstitious former contract killer Olivia believes the universe is demanding payment for her past crimes, so when a small time criminal gang brings tragedy to her family, she has to get creative while trying to mislead the police long enough to exact her revenge.
Congratulations to Mark, whose debut #thehitwomansguidetoreducinghouseholddebt is featured in the September ๐๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฎ ๐พ๐๐ฃ๐๐ก๐๐ก๐๐๐๐ฉ ๐ฝ๐ค๐ค๐ ๐ฝ๐ค๐ญ & on sale from 1st September.
