Product Description
Review
‘The business of a novelist is to tell a story. Jon Cleary has that talent in abundance’
Sunday Express
‘Jon Cleary’s writing has lost none of its youth, enthusiasm and ability to fascinate’
Daily Telegraph, Australia
Product Description
The new Scobie Malone novel, in which award-winning writer Jon Cleary vividly portrays the struggle against crime and social prejudice on the streets in Sydney.
In the gay community of Sydney, where ‘gay bashings’ are a daily occurrence, someone has taken the law into their own hands and is eliminating the culprits. To confuse matters further, each shooting appears to have been done by a different person. Whoever it is, Malone realises that he is up against an intelligent, highly dangerous killer who is as elusive as he is deadly. At the same time, this difficult case is causing tension within the force as prejudices of all kinds – race, creed, colour and sexual inclination – rear their ugly heads.
It’s bad enough that the killer is one step ahead, constantly protected by the gay network who are refusing to help, but when Malone’s own precious daughter has a near escape, his determination to crack the case intensifies, while he tries to remain professional.
