Book Review: Truth by Petter Temple

This Australian author wins many awards for his gritty crime novels and his newest offering has been getting rave reviews in the media. Set in Melbourne the story starts with the discovery of a dead woman in a very exclusive new apartment building, with a broken neck but no clues as to her identity. Detective Villani needs to solve this whilst negotiating the pitfalls of work politics, potential bush fires encircling his fathers home and a family unraveling at the seams. This is the follow-up to the prize-winning The Broken Shore. Highly recommended. Truth by Peter Temple – This Australian author wins many awards for his gritty crime novels and hisnewest offering has been getting rave reviews in the media.
