Publisher's Summary
Joe Cashin was different once. He moved easily then; was surer and less thoughtful. But there are consequences when you’ve come so close to dying. For Cashin, they included a posting away from the world of Homicide to the quiet place on the coast where he grew up. Now all he has to do is play the country cop and walk the dogs. And sometimes think about how he was before.
Then prominent local Charles Bourgoyne is bashed and left for dead. Everything seems to point to three boys from the nearby Aboriginal community; everyone seems to want it to. But Cashin is unconvinced. And as tragedy unfolds relentlessly into tragedy, he finds himself holding onto something that might be better let go....

amazing narration
Excellent Australian crime fiction with amazing narration. Sadly the sequel had a different narrator which is a major let down as I loved Peter Hoskings performance

Fabulous book
The most well-written engaging book of any genre I've read in many years. I recommend to anyone not just as a crime novel but a great story.

Riveting
Wow absolutely brilliant. The best drama read (listened to) in a long time. A very good plot, so well written and with clever underlying humour. The many characters brought to life by Peter Hosking brilliantly.

Great audiobook
I really enjoyed this book and found it difficult to stop listening. The characters were very vivid which is a credit to the writer and the narrator. I’ll be looking for other novels by this author.
For those listeners that like a lighter novel this will not be for you, because there is a lot of swearing and the story involves a very dark subject.

good story
I liked this book, but it was a little hard for me to keep up with the characters. I enjoyed the reading and the story.
I might listen to it again another time, when I'm not so busy 😊
