andrew61 's review for:

The Broken Shore by Peter Temple
4.0

I hadn't heard about Peter temple through the crimetime podcast so grabbed this novel about Joe cashin a police officer seconded to a suburban town after a traumatic incident in his Melbourne service.
The book is about the murder of a local businessman but moves into issues around racism and sexual exploitation.
Joe is a great character whose rough edges make for a compelling read.
Definitely want to read more.
