Barossa Street coming soon

 Barossa Street, my follow-up to Cuddies Strip, will be published on 11th May by Ringwood Publishing.

Barossa Street by Rob McInroy

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?

Barossa Street

 I am delighted that Ringwood Publishing have contracted to publish my next novel, Barossa Street.


Barossa Street is the follow-up to the CWA John Creasey Golden Dagger Award-longlisted Cuddies Strip, which was described by Val McDermid as "highly recommended". It features once more, Bob Kelty, the shy but dogged policeman from Cuddies Strip. Now, much to his relief, out of the police force, he is nonetheless embroiled in another vicious crime when a friend of his is arrested and charged with a murder that Bob is convinced he didn't commit. He sets off in pursuit of the real culprit and uncovers some nasty truths in the process...

Barossa Street will be published in Spring 2022.
