This week one for lovers of Crime books. A glimpse into a scary underworld in Australian criminal circles.
This is wonderful lengthy read by a journalist who has certainly come up close and personal with some of the worst criminals in Australian history both as a crime reporter and as an author.

Two novelists who write lighter fiction but with deeper messages this week
DI MORRISSEY -‘ ARCADIA’
What starts out as a seemingly simple story of two women friends, Stella and Jessica, returning to Stella’s family home in Tasmania, becomes a more complex ecological lesson in the importance of forests and fungi!
HARRY SADDLER – ‘The Eastern Curlew – the Extraordinary Life of a Migratory Bird’
Many of us as we walk along the beach may see birds fossicking in the sand or mud and not realise that they may have come an enormous distance to land on these shores and feed. Just how far and how long it takes them is the subject of this beautifully written account, in which the author reflects on the ever diminishing populations of waterbirds and migrating birds and how we are impacting upon them.
