Local Description

KERRYS REVIEW - If you are a big fan of Poirot then this is the book for you. A cantankerous fussy detective on the trail of a killer and of course in true Poirot style, he knows best. The touches on racism with the Aboriginal tracker, Cooper, seemed something a little bizarre to read as my headspace was in Poirot mode. A jolt of reality to how awful society was back in the 1920s in Western Australia. Thankfully one of the characters stood up for what is right. Recommend for those who love a mystery.

Description

Set in 1927, the story takes all the classic elements of an interwar murder mystery and gives it a distinctive Australian flavour. A nameless friar turns up at Halfwell Station, at the same time that Ana, the adopted daughter of the station owners, discovers a body in the desert nearby when she goes for a midnight walk. But when she returns to look for it, the body is gone. Death Leaves the Stationwas written for fans of classic mystery and crime fiction.
