International Writers Inspiring Change featured book review: Going All the Way by Sean O'Leary

Updated: 5 days ago




Travis is the night manager at the Cross Motel in Sydney’s notorious late-night district, Kings Cross. His life takes a drastic turn after a sex worker is brutally murdered on his shift.

Having broken up with his girlfriend and lost his dream of becoming a professional AFL player, Travis’s life is in shambles. With the police breathing down his neck and his ex-girlfriend asking him to find her missing partner, Travis has got his plate full, and more.

His search takes him to Melbourne, where he also has to find two missing girls. Travis realizes there’s only one way out: find the people responsible and bring them to justice. But can he make it out alive?


"A gritty thriller, as one man sets out to find justice for those who have been murdered…"


"A thriller that takes place in Australia.

A look at the seedier side of life.

Young people with no morals for the most part.

Mystery full of drug users, violent murder and search for missing people.

Well written, an exciting adventure."
