Barossa Street, my follow-up to Cuddies Strip, will be published on 11th May by Ringwood Publishing.
It is available for pre-order here.
20th January 1936, and King George V is dying.
The same day, Bob Kelty accompanies a friend to the house of a local recluse. There, they find Hugh Smithson brutally murdered in his bed.
Horror turns to nightmare as Bob’s friend, Richard Hamill, comes under suspicion of the murder and Bob reluctantly becomes embroiled, once more, in the investigation of a terrible crime in 1930s Perth. Gradually, he begins to uncover the truth, and it is something nobody expected...
Set against the backdrop of the
abdication crisis and the looming shadow of war, Barossa Street examines the
prejudice of 1930s society and its impact on the justice system. Will this lead
to the police jumping to conclusions and prosecuting the wrong man? Or will Bob
save the day?
