Wire and Bone

"Dune scrub in every direction... and a body that appears to have fallen out of an endless, cloudless sky. Colin King takes us to the remote and beautiful Big Desert of Victoria's Mallee to introduce his latest absorbing murder mystery. Here is an author who knows and loves his Australia, and his detective André Marshall and journalist-partner Ella Ritchie transport us from the middle of nowhere to big city intrigue, with an excursion through painful family secrets on the way to solving a baffling crime." Tony Wright, The Age "The Mallee is the perfect location for a murder mystery, and Colin King has superbly captured the vast, arid emptiness of the region and the stoic nature of its people in Wire & Bone. A great read set in a captivating corner of Australia." Adam McNicol - author, The Mallee: A journey through north-west Victoria
