Kittyhawk Down Zusammenfassung

Kittyhawk Down: The Second Challis and Destry Mystery Garry Disher

The once-peaceful beach resort of Bushrangers Bay, not far from Melbourne, is the site of multiple crimes that must be investigated by Homicide Squad Inspector Hal Challis and Sergeant Ellen Destry of the Mornington Peninsula Police Force. A toddler is missing; an unidentified corpse has been fished from the sea; cars are being stolen and torched; letter boxes are being burned. And then one of Challis' own friends, Kitty Casement, who runs an aerial photography service and flies a Kittyhawk, is murdered. Figuring out the connections and identifying the criminals absorbs all the energy and intelligence of this cast of sympathetic but complicated policemen and women.

Kittyhawk Down Bewertungen

'A police procedural ... featuring a squad of interestingly flawed homicide cops ... working multiple cases that feature multiple puzzles and a pool of incisively well-drawn murder suspects ... First rate.' New York Times Book Review'Gripping... As the story neatly advances from the viewpoints of characters both major and minor, Disher artfully employs misdirection... Fans of Peter Temple will find much to like in this dark whodunit.' Publishers Weekly'Procedural fans looking for something a little different will devour this one... Enough dark overtones to elevate the series into the Ian Rankin league.' Booklist'Challis is a fine creation: strong and resourceful, yet with enough human frailty to satisfy the tastes of readers raised on Connelly, Rankin or Patricia Cornwell. This is intelligent, well-crafted fare, enlivened by a sharp awareness of society and the dark undercurrents beneath it.' West Australian
