If you discovered Peter Temple via the wonderful Broken Shore, be prepared for something different here. There is the same deft conjuring of atmosphere (not to mention the astringent characterisation) that was such an important part of Temple’s award-winning novel) but the semi-detached copper of that book is here replaced by a protagonist who is more in the long line of detectives that stretch back Chandler's Philip Marlowe. So a different Peter Temple from that we might be used to, but nonetheless beguiling for all that. --Barry Forshaw
