Gertie — the soul of every road.
The old 1956 Ford F100 that’s more reliable than most people. She’s dented, dusty, and louder than a bar fight, but she’s been through every storm with Crash. If she could talk, she’d have stories too.
Meet the Crew
Every Crash Jaxon story brings familiar faces, bad ideas, and unforgettable moments. These are the people — and machines — that keep the chaos rolling and the stories alive.
Crash Jaxon
The man himself. Always in over his head, but never backing down. He means well, acts fast, and thinks later. Somehow, luck keeps him breathing — or maybe just stubbornness.
Hanna
The one person who can keep Crash honest — most of the time. Smart, sharp, and tougher than a sunbaked road, she’s the spark that keeps him from burning out completely.
Jessica Tomlinson
The sweet but naughty housewife who read too many rapacious, raunchy romance novels, with the wicked friend who encouraged her to make a life‑altering decision.
John Tomlinson
His life forever changed that morning he walked in on his wife bent over the couch with his gardener buried to the hilt in her
Falcon Lazar
Crash’s best mate, forever hatching birdbrained ideas that land them both in trouble — but unshakeable when shit hits the fan.
Mrs Delaney
Crash’s mother‑not‑mother and business mentor. Teaching him the ways of business, with payments made in the form of stories about his shenanigans. She works hard to correct his poor grammar and nip that swearing in the bud.
Evie Jaxon
Crash and Hanna’s daughter — his reason for living and his anchor to this world. The baby girl who would save his life.
Jill
Jessica’s wicked friend, known for her boozy mistakes and her disdain for monogamy.
Officer Robert Cowan
An old‑school, clip‑you‑in‑the‑ear and boot‑you‑up‑the‑arse copper who Crash rubbed the wrong way. At home on the front line of a riot squad, and an expert at breaching doors.
Officer Megan Gale
Best known as the Lightning Witch, quick with a taser, she has unfortunately been tethered to Cowan; the making or tanking of her career is tied directly to his.
Cindy Bardot
The sweet office secretary with a hidden wild side, just waiting for her moment to pounce like a tiger on a gazelle.
Ariana
Hanna’s bestie and resident hair wizard, the one responsible for Hanna’s wild colours and wicked braids, and harbouring an exquisite crush on Crash.
Bill Hindrichson
Police Chief Superintendent, old footy mates with Viv Hodge, an old‑school hardliner who eventually finds a soft spot for Crash. With history repeating itself, he remembers his old boss’s adage that sometimes a soft hand is better in policing.
Viv Hodge
Cantankerous old block layer, John’s boss and owner of Hodges Constructions. Gives zero shits about people’s feelings and needs John to supervise him just to keep the business running smoothly.
Herminia, The Soul Walker
A luminous, angelic presence who nudges fate with a whisper. She guided Evie into Crash’s world, anchoring him to life and quietly reshaping his destiny for the better.
