Books by David Whish-Wilson
By the author of the acclaimed Line of Sight, Zero at the Bone lifts the lid on Perth at the start of the mining boom to show a town where Chinatown meets Underbelly, and where the establishment and the lawless blend into one.
Line of Sight is classic crime noir, a tale of dark corruption set in a city of sun and heat.
