New Release: Killer Pose

The latest Action Girl Original Thriller will be released tomorrow (5th May 2025) in digital and paperback format.

Dead models painted silver. Dressed like mannequins. Posed by a killer.

University of York media student – and elite gymnast – Cassie Simms is hailed as a national hero after she exposes a sex offender in a sting operation. Offered a lucrative modelling contract by Hexagon Sports, she dismisses the company’s shady reputation and becomes the face of their Modern Woman brand.

But when a masked assailant slays a co-worker and poses her as a mannequin, Cassie teams up with her reporter boyfriend Lyle to investigate. Then a second woman is murdered. Police are out of their depth. Any Hexagon model could be next.

Cassie uncovers a link to two suspicious suicides. Hunted by a methodical serial killer, she must rely on wits and gymnastics skills to survive. One mistake, and the biggest story of her career could end with her own murder.

A complex, fast-paced mystery with an athletic and resourceful heroine. The bodies pile up in this tense cinematic thriller. Ideal for British crime, slasher, and giallo fans.

“Bold, bizarre, and totally unforgettable. … Every scene felt like it belonged on screen … Creepy, clever, and so entertaining-I flew through it.”NetGalley Reviewer

Reintroducing Action Girl Books

Hello World (again)!

(As an ex-programmer, I couldn’t resist using the standard programming language intro).

This is a relaunch after a long hiatus.

Action Girl Books are a publisher based in (rainy) Manchester, England. Its prime focus – as you may have guessed from the name – is to publish works featuring strong female characters in action roles. These may either be protagonists (good girls) or antagonists (bad girls). Many books will feature both of these.

First up is a revised third edition of Jade Dragon. And hopefully, many more titles will follow.
