The Broken Shore Audiokniha (CD)

Detektiv Joe Cashin se po náročném vyšetřování vrací do rodného města, aby se zbavil nočních můr. Jeho klid ale naruší brutální útok na prominentního člena místní komunity... Napsal nejproslulejší australský autor detektivek, nositel mnoha ocenění. Broken by his last case, homicide detective Joe Cashin has fled the city and returned to his hometown to run its one-man police station while his wounds heal and the nightmares fade. He lives a quiet life with his two dogs in the tumbledown wreck his family home has become. It's a peaceful existence - ideal for the rehabilitating man. But his recovery is rudely interrupted by a brutal attack on Charles Bourgoyne, a prominent member of the local community. Suspicion falls on three young men from the local Aboriginal community. But Cashin's not so sure and as the case unfolds amid simmering corruption and prejudice, he finds himself holding on to something that it might be better to let go. The relentless story of a town with a hidden past versus a man who is trying to forget his, The Broken Shore delivers powerful, lean writing, pumping more muscle and feeling into one paragraph than other writers can muster in a page. A masterpiece of insight and passion. Australia's leading crime writer.
