An Iron Rose is a crime classic about Aussie Rules football, ironwork, men, and murder. Peter Temple--winner of Australian, French, German, and British crime writing prizes, as well as Australia's most prestigious literary prize, the Miles Franklin Literary Award--is one of the country's finest writers in any genre.
