Reviews
'Dust Off the Bones is a terrific sequel to one of my favourite novels of the last few years and takes us in a new and wholly unexpected direction with many of our favourite characters from Only Killers and Thieves. Highly recommended' - Adrian McKinty, author of The Chain
'Dust Off The Bones is a blood-soaked outback saga that brings Australia's bleak history to vivid, page-turning life. Packed with compelling characters and shocking turns, this is essential reading, taking us from the heart of deepest darkness to a place of fragile hope. A brilliant, layered novel unlike anything else you'll read this year. Do not miss it' - Gabriel Bergmoser, author of THE HUNTED
'A tale of violence and redemption in the Australian Outback... Fast-paced and brimming with colorful, realistic detail... A classic cowboy saga is transformed into a complex, sophisticated morality play' - Kirkus (starred review)
'As searing and savage as the Australian frontier setting... [A] masterly tale of trauma and retribution' - Publishers Weekly, starred review
