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?

Started off a bit grim and I nearly gave up on the grumpy main character but I'm glad I perservered. Helped by the clean kitchen and the goat's knees line. Keen for the next installment, fingers crossed. Perfect narration.

Bit grim & grumpy but great
