Why read it?

1 author picked Silver as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Silver brims with wonderful scene setting in rural Australia—you can almost smell the barbeques and hear the cockatoos. What I like about the main character, Martin Scarsdale, is that he’s prepared to go places and take chances where others fear to tread. A journalist rather than a detective, he uses his journalistic nous to solve crimes with which the police struggle. His motivation is his innate desire to expose the truth, especially when others are trying to conceal it.

If you enjoy crime thrillers with colourful characters and plots with lots of twists and turns, Silver is for you.
