Synopsis
"One of the world's finest crime writers."—Times
"World-class."—The Washington Post
"Readers might be tempted to slow down and savor the prose if the plot line weren't so compelling."—LibraryJournal.com
"Temple's characters are complex, his plots complicated, his world smudged if not outright dirty - that is, his books are entirely credible." -HeadButler.com
"Peter Temple? Only one of the world's better novelists. But unknown to most American readers largely because he lives in Australia." -HeadButler.com
The woman in Jack Irish's life has reconnected with an old flame, and Jack's mind is not fully on the job he's being paid to do: find Robbie Colburn. But when he does get serious, Jack finds his target is of great interest to some powerful people, with some very bad habits and little respect for the criminal justice system.
Winner of multiple international literary awards, Peter Temple lives in Victoria, Australia.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. It takes a lot to rattle Jack Irish but, as Melbourne descends into a cold, wet winter, his mood is on the same trajectory. The woman in Jack's life has reconnected with an old flame. He has gambled and lost massively and seen a champion horse put down. It's not surprising that Jack's mind is not fully on the job he's being paid to do- find Robbie Colburne, occasional barman. But when Jack does get serious, he finds the freelance drink-dispenser is of great interest to some powerful people, people with very bad habits and a distinct lack of respect for the criminal justice system.Any lapse in concentration could prove fatal. The third novel in the iconic Jack Irish series, featuring Australia's favorite crime protagonist. Tie-in jacket featuring Guy Pearce. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781922147356
