Signal Loss

by Garry Disher
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
A small bushfire, but nasty enough for ice cooks to abandon their lab. Fatal, too. But when the bodies in the burnt-out Mercedes prove to be a pair of Sydney hitmen, Inspector Hal Challis's inquiries into a local ice epidemic take a darker turn. Meanwhile, Ellen Destry, head of the new sex crimes unit, finds herself not only juggling the personalities of her team but hunting a serial rapist who leaves no evidence behind.
The seventh instalment in Garry Disher's celebrated Peninsula Crimes series sets up new challenges, both professional and personal, for Challis and Destry. And Disher delivers with all the suspense and human complexity for which readers love him.
'The story's momentum never slows as Disher weaves these strands together with consummate skill and lyrical language.' Publishers Weekly, starred review
'Disher is a world-class crime novelist, and Signal Loss is another superbly written police procedural that mixes strong characterisations with a taut, intelligent plot and biting social commentary...the Peninsula locations are richly evoked. Highly recommended.' Canberra Weekly
'While this is the seventh book in the series, it can easily be read as a stand-alone, although that's unlikely to happen: readers new to the series will be unable to resist seeking out the earlier books; fans of Disher's work will not be disappointed. Clever and topical, this is Aussie crime fiction at its best.' BookMooch
'Disher is a master of the written word and he fleshes out his detectives very well even for a newcomer to the series...Excellent descriptions of the people, the landscape and emotions provide a great background to the tightly written plot, and the reader is left wanting to read more.' ReadPlus
