A funny Australian mystery about Adelaide and football and fishing and voodoo and wives.

When down-at-heel Adelaide private detective Bruce Bilger accepts a curious but seemingly trivial case from a local Australian Rules football club, the Centralian Galahs, he has no inkling of the bizarre and perilous circumstances into which he is about to be plunged.

Will his survival instinct and street wisdom make up for his lack of social graces, and will his curiosity ultimately kill him or break the case?

Author

Peter Tonkin

Peter Tonkin grew up in Adelaide and hung out in the arty fringe there, getting himself into bands, cabaret, films, theatre and other funny things. He also played Aussie rules football for a team he would prefer to remain nameless - to protect the guilty. And he wants to assure his readers that during his time as a player he did not attempt to execute any drop kicks, although some of his more adventurous team mates did.
