WINNER OF DANGER AWARD FOR CRIME FICTION

'Isn't it your job to stop people being murdered?'

1911, on a winter's night in arid New South Wales wool country, mounted trooper Augustus Hawkins discovers the bodies of three young people. They are scions of the richest family in the district, savagely murdered on a road that Hawkins should have been patrolling, had he not been busy bedding the local schoolteacher.

Detectives arrive from Sydney and the disgraced Hawkins, a traumatized veteran of the Boer War, comes under fierce scrutiny. With his honor and sanity at stake, he becomes hell-bent on finding the murderer. But as ever darker secrets are revealed about the people he thinks of as friends, Hawkins is forced to confront an uncomfortable question: who is paying the price for the new nation's prosperity?

This was an absolutely outstanding first novel. I was gripped from beginning to end. I’ll be waiting with anticipation for Fioretti’s next book. As narrator, Lewis Fitz-Gerald was flawless. The man who narrated Winton’s new novel Juice would do well to study F-G.

Historical rural noir at its very best
