Title: Win a copy of “Bone Lands” by Pip Fioretti Post by: culturebird on Tuesday 02 April 2024, 01:19:07 am Bone Lands by Pip Fioretti
The origin story of outback noir: a dark, gritty and suspenseful dive into Australia’s past, through the eyes of an unforgettable narrator. 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 traumatised veteran of the Boer War, comes under fierce scrutiny. With his honour 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? To enter, tell us who discovers the three dead bodies? https://goodreadingmagazine.com.au/competitions/win-bone-lands-by-pip-fioretti/ Terms And Conditions: 1.
