Book Description
“Peter Clancy is an amalgam of characters from crime fiction and film noir- a world-weary type.”- Sydney Daily Telegraph.It is 1987 and Peter Clancy, a hard-drinking, hard-living journalist from the Melbourne Truth, returns to his hometown in North Queensland to attend his mother’s funeral. Peter’s two-day visit to Clarke’s Flat stretches to eight as he is unwillingly drawn into the sinister secrets of this outback town. Peter’s quest for evidence will stir up more than he bargained for – including his own shameful past.
