�Garry Disher has been giving us highly intelligent literary thrillers for decades and he gets better and better.� Australian The young detectives call Alan Auhl a retread, but that doesn�t faze him. He does things his own way�and gets results. He still lives with his ex-wife, off and on, in a big house full of random boarders and hard-luck stories. And he�s still a cop, even though he retired from Homicide some years ago. He works cold cases now. Like the death of John Elphick�his daughters still convinced he was murdered, the coroner not so sure. Or the skeleton that�s just been found under a concrete slab. Or the doctor who killed two wives and a girlfriend, and left no evidence at all. Auhl will stick with these cases until justice is done. One way or another. Garry Disher has published fifty titles�fiction, children�s books, anthologies, textbooks, the Wyatt thrillers and the Peninsula Crimes series. His previous standalone novel, Bitter Wash Road, won the German Crime Prize in 2016. �Peter Temple and Garry Disher will be identified as the crime writers who redefined Australian crime fiction in terms of its form, content and style.� Age �A top-class writer.� Times �[Disher�s] writing is subtle, terse and relentless...understated but astoundingly vivid.� Weekend Herald �Garry Disher deserves his reputation as one of Australia�s finest crime writers.� Stuff NZ
