The Death of John Lacey by Ben Hobson

5.0

This is a cracking read that will appeal to fans of historical crime and western. On one level, this is a tale of colonisers reckoning with privileges extracted from black land. On another, it is about John Lacey, a man who knew exactly what was right and what was wrong and took it all anyway, no apologies, and says it up straight.
