The Mercury 'A bottler of a book ... superbly crafted. A terrific book in all respects.' Weekly Times 'Charlie Berlin [is] a wonderfully flawed human being doing his duty, falling apart and picking himself back up again.' Austcrimefiction.org 'McGeachin's reconstruction of post-war Australia has an air of authenticity ... there is a depth to the characters that is characteristic of the better modern detective fiction.'
