Dead Note
An arresting, dual-narrative thriller with a true crime twist about a washed-up singer in a cat-and-mouse chase across Manila as she tries to bring her father's killer to justice while avoiding becoming his next victim...
A killer's greatest hit starts with a song . . .
Mia Cordova's world imploded when her father was shot dead in front of her while singing a karaoke classic. The police insisted that his death was the result of a random barroom brawl - an open and shut case - but when, years later, another man is killed in the same way, singing the same song, Mia is convinced the two killings must be connected.
When a newspaper article draws a link between the murders, Mia is thrown into an investigation that leads her into Manila's underworld of interrogations, gambling rings and shootouts. With the police quick to cast suspicion on her, Mia must bring her father's killer to justice alone. But can she catch a killer before she becomes his next victim?
"An original, compelling, hard-hitting thriller, Dead Note takes off like a bullet train and doesn't let up until the heart-stopping finale." —A.A. CHAUDHURI

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
