Story
Kit Darling is a maid with a snooping problem. She’s the “invisible girl,” compelled to poke into her wealthy clients’ closely guarded lives. It’s a harmless hobby until Kit sees something she can’t unsee in the home of her brand-new clients: a secret so dark it could destroy the privileged couple expecting their first child. This makes Kit dangerous to the couple. In turn, it makes the couple—who might kill to keep their secret—dangerous to Kit.

Story
Nash Rankin is a disgraced cop trying to escape his past—his career was destroyed when he chose to take justice into his own hands. Now he's living a quiet life in a small town caring for the local wildlife and trying to stay away from trouble. Jesse Redpath has a new job in a new town, Satellite—the stormy weather that greets her first few days on the new beat seems like a sign for what's to come. A local has died in what seems like an accident, but Jessie isn't so sure that ‘accident' wasn't planned. All evidence seems to point to Nash, but Jesse's not sure about that either.

Publisher's Summary
Winner of the inaugural ASA/HQ Commercial Fiction Prize. The twists keep piling up in this fun and distinctively Australian debut mystery, perfect for fans of The Thursday Murder Club and Janet Evanovich.
Brick Brown has problems: she hates her day job, and her beloved Uncle Baz has gone missing.
Although a bartender by trade, Brick Brown has finagled herself a job on the city council to investigate a complaint that threatens to close her uncle's well-loved blues club in the heart of Melbourne.
Brick suspects something strange is going on, but when her amateur sleuthing uncovers the mayor's dead body in a locked room, she's dragged into the dangerous world of dodgy developers with the reluctant help of Mitch Mitchell, a prickly war correspondent turned investigative journalist.
Relying on her street smarts and an unlikely band of allies, Brick and Mitchell unearth corruption that runs deeper than just local government, and the stakes are higher than they banked on. And when Brick also discovers some terrifying information about her past, the stakes turn deadly...
PRAISE:
'Not since Jack Irish has Melbourne's Fitzroy been so funny.'—The Chronicle
'Impressive debut'—Australian Women's Weekly
'Filled with witty dialogue, a page-turning mystery and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, Brunswick Street Blues is a cracking debut that takes readers on a wild romp through the streets of Melbourne.'—Better Reading

One of my top books of the year!
Loved this great mystery set in Melbourne’s inner north. Would love to revisit this set of characters and places again if there is ever a sequel.

A crime novel, researched and written as only a journalist could
No loose ends or holes in the plot here. It’s fiction but the level of detail and research make this feel like ‘true-crime’

Fun with farcical story with punches
An intriguing story unravels with great humour and cynicism being espoused by the hero. Set in Melbourne, the author has some good insights into the corruption of politics by land developers and property acquisitions

Truly wonderful
What a wonderful story set with Melbourne as its backdrop. I recognised streets and could picture the places this book was set. So much going on in this story to keep you well and truly hooked and such beautiful characters that you can’t help but relate to

Written for folks from Melbourne
I feel like this book was written for folks from Melbourne as the way the city was brought to life was by namedropping a bunch of streets and landmarks. I also felt like the best mystery (the one that drew me in) got brushed aside and then when it was finally explained it fell flat for me.
