This novel, set in the wild Kimberley country of northern Australia in the 1930s, paints a brutal picture of life in those early days, an era when men as dangerous as any that rode through the pages of the American west lived with apparent impunity. Lawless men with no regard for right or wrong. Men like Jan Muller, manager of the sprawling cattle station, Cockatoo Creek, a man with a secret, murderous past. A dangerous, sadistic man with no regard for the Aboriginal people that work on the huge property he manages, or those that roam the wild lands that was the Kimberley of those days.

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.
