Kim Hunt writes about the sort of kick-ass female protagonists you rarely see in crime fiction.
Working class heroes. Fierce femmes. Gender outlaws and precious misfits. Readers are propelled through gritty Antipodean road trips, urban cityscapes and endless tracts of coastal forest: a body dumpers paradise.
The Cal Nyx Mystery Thriller series began in 2020 with The Beautiful Dead, followed by The Quarry (2023) and The Freezer (2024).
The Ngaio Marsh Awards recognized The Beautiful Dead when it was shortlisted for Best First Novel in 2021 with The Quarry being longlisted in 2024.
Kim's current work-in-progress is a fourth Cal Nyx mystery thriller.
A standalone crime novel set in New Zealand, The Corrector, is in pre-publication.
