Reviews of Outside the Law 3
"...one minute you are
frivolously enjoying stories of gangsters, happily cocooned in all the
pop-culture resonances, but the next chapter throws at you something so
obscene that you wonder if you want to keep reading.... the quality of
the writing... is high." Owen Richardson, The Age, 15 August 2009
"Expect to be moved to tears of sadness... that some of
these monsters are never caught. But also expect to feel pride and
admiration for trhe men and women who work so hard tro try to obtain
justice..." Phyllis King, Stilletto Winter 2009 (Official magazine
of Sisters In Crime Australia Inc)
"The good thing about this collection is
the
balance of stories, from
the desperately sad and distressing, to the infuriating and the brazen,
along with some very funny moments. None of the funny moments are
overdone, belittling or cruel - but, in particular, the story of the
newspaper roundsman has some laugh out loud moments as the antics are
revealed. There are some touching moments as well - the story of
journalist John Allin and the family of Kirste, kidnapped all those
years ago in Adelaide as an example." Read the full review

"Fascinating but not for the
faint-hearted. Verdict: juicy." Herald Sun, 19 September 2009
