Number of Pages: 400


A must-read Australian rural crime novel, written by one of the masters of the genre. Constable Paul Hirschhausen runs a one-cop station in the dry farming country south of the Flinders Ranges. He's still new in town but the community work-welfare checks and working bees-is starting to pay off. Now Christmas is here and, apart from a grass fire, two boys stealing a ute and Brenda Flann entering the front bar of the pub without exiting her car, Hirsch's life has been peaceful. Until he's called to a strange, vicious incident in Kitchener Street. And Sydney police ask him to look in on a family living outside town on a forgotten back road. Suddenly, it doesn't look like a season of goodwill at all.

Murdering in Burra

This is some pretty good Australian crime fiction. It's a sequel to Bitterwash Road and once again set around Burra, where Disher comes from originally and where he has set a number of books. He does a pretty good version of small town Australia with gormless kids, hopeless adults and the lone cop tasked with sorting things out.
