The fifth thrilling instalment in Alan Carter's Cato Kwong crime series. Detective Philip 'Cato' Kwong is investigating the death of a retiree found hacked to pieces in his suburban Perth home. The trail leads to Timor-Leste, with its recent blood-soaked history. There, he reunites with an old frenemy, the spook Rory Driscoll who, in Cato's experience, has always occupied a hazy moral terrain. Resourceful, multilingual and hard as nails, Rory has been Canberra's go-to guy when things get sticky in the Asia-Pacific. Now Rory wants out. But first he's needed to chaperone a motley group of whistleblowers with a price on their heads. And there's one on his, too. Part espionage thriller, part police procedural, Crocodile Tears shows powerful forces, at home and abroad, determined to keep their secrets buried. At any cost.
Autorenporträt
Alan Carter was born in Sunderland, UK. He immigrated to Australia in 1991 and now lives in splendid semi-rural, semi-isolation south of Hobart, Tasmania. In his spare time, he follows the black line up and down the local swimming pool, or drags on his wetsuit and braves the icy waters of the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. Alan is the author of Prize Catch, which is set in Tasmania, and three novels in the Nick Chester series: Marlborough Man (winner of the Ngaio Marsh Award for Best Crime Novel), Doom Creek and Franz Josef. He is also the author of the Fremantle-set DS Cato Kwong series, which includes Prime Cut (winner of the Ned Kelly Award for Best First Fiction), Getting Warmer, Bad Seed, Heaven Sent and Crocodile Tears.
