About this listen

An utterly compelling police procedural set on the Murray River, by a rising star of Australian crime fiction.

One foggy morning on the banks of the Murray River, a body is found in a burnt-out area of grassland. The heavily tattooed victim, who has suffered two bullet wounds to the head, is identified as Freddie Jones, a bikie from Moama.

Detective Sergeant Zoe Mayer is on the case, alongside her trusty service dog, Harry. Although Zoe is determined to track down the murderer, she finds herself stonewalled at every turn—by Freddie's family, his associates and even the local police. But then a second body is discovered, and soon all bets are off…

Wild Card is a gripping mystery about gang warfare and small-town corruption, featuring a crime-fighting duo like no other.

Enjoyable, I like the concept of Zoe being traumatised and needing Harry. Enjoy their action. Other characters solid.
Couple of things grated! wouldn’t organised crime be investigating?
And McDonald is Scottish but character is Irish. Police use spikes to stop speeding cars not drive a car at it! Not believable as an action removing a significant character.

Harry is the best. Just a couple of little things.
