PattyMacDotComma | 820 comments A new favourite Aussie thriller for my bookshelf! If you need more than my enthusiasm, Lee Child called Michael Trant's latest novel, Wild Dogs "Tough, fast and hard – my kind of book." It is also a completely authentic, Aussie outback story. I'm with Lee on this one.

Sarah | 395 comments Here's my review of Arthur W. Upfield's 1929 mystery-thriller The Barrakee Mystery, an early example of quality Australian crime writing. A great read, but also troubling in its historically accurate depictions of treatment of and attitudes towards indigenous Australians.

A Question of Death).
