Produktbeschreibung
Syrah Barberra returns to Perth with expectations of joining the legal practice of an old friend and becoming a proper mother to her first child. The friend has a different understanding and when offered a specialist position by the Police Commissioner, Evan Watkins, she's reluctant. Pregnant with her second child, she knows she will be available for only two or three months, but Evan is undeterred. He knows her skills and needs an outsider, a cleanskin, to clear up a corrupt mess on his patch. She takes the job, on the understanding that she will have a free hand, and that when her time draws close, she will be released from her obligations. What follows takes her back to her childhood and opens her eyes to the true nature of those she reveres the most.

Autorenporträt
Dan Cotton, AKA Phil Mayne, spent the first fifteen years of his working life travelling the world with the Grey Funnel Line (Royal Navy). He then joined the world of commerce and pretty much carried on travelling as before. In the eighties, he started a business that eventually listed on the Stock Exchange and delisted in 1989 after the crash of 1987. He didn't make much money, but he learned the hard way, about the underbelly of high-end business operations and decided there were better ways to earn a crust.Twelve years in the IT world kept him going until he decided to do his own thing and start an art gallery with a picture framing service. In the event that he doesn't make squillions from his writing, he'll still be framing, painting and writing until he carks it. *Who is Dan Cotton? Sometimes, even he's not sure. He's one of those folks who, no matter where they are in the world, will always be mistaken for someone else.*Having written nothing more than business proposals and letters, he started on his first manuscript and soon realised he badly needed help. That's when he joined the Katharine Susannah Prichard Writing Centre (WA) and, with encouragement and critique from KSP's Thursday Night Group, he has been able to complete 11 full length Novels and three Short Story Anthologies.*For twenty years, He's been a member of a team who compete annually in the Open Section of "Write A Book In A Day" [www.writeabookinaday.com]. This is a national competition aimed at improving child literacy while raising funds for children's cancer research. Several of the team's entries have been winners, or highly commended, and have since been privately published. Not only is it a hard day's slog it's one of the best ways of testing one's writing, and Dan wouldn't miss it for quids.
