AN ACT OF INEXPLICABLE CRUELTY. A FAMILY DESTROYED.
Constable Paul Hirschhausen runs a one-cop station in the dry farming country south of the Flinders Ranges. He's still new in town but his community work - welfare checks and a light touch - is starting to pay off. Now Christmas is here and, apart from a grass fire, two boys stealing a vehicle, and Brenda Flann entering the front bar of the pub without exiting her car, Hirsch's life has been peaceful.
Until he's called to an incident on Kitchener Street, a strange and vicious attack that sickens the community. And when the Sydney police ask him to look in on a family living on a forgotten back road, it doesn't look like a season of goodwill at all...
A hugely atmospheric police procedural set in the dust of the Australian outback. Perfect for readers of Jane Harper, Chris Hammer and Dervla McTiernan.

Rezensionen
<b>An uplifting book, an utterly compelling mystery with rare heart and humanity. If you enjoyed Jane Harper'
<b>In prose baked as hard as the sun-scorched outback, Disher summons up the muggy oppressiveness of a small town with years of buried secrets, a veteran crime writer who knows how to expertly tie together the disparate threads of his narrative</b>
<b>A scorchingly good novel</b>
<b>Relevant, fresh and exciting. <i>Peace </i>is a satisfying complex mystery that reflects on family, corruption, big city violence seeping into the country, deep rooted racism, rural isolation and decline. The story is vivid, brutal and fast paced</b>
<b>Disher is brilliant at rural noir, capturing the stifling atmosphere of a small town where resentments simmer against the backdrop of an unforgiving landscape</b>
<b>In this brilliant novel Disher takes his readers on a harrowing journey</b>
<b>Peter Temple and Garry Disher will be identified as the crime writers who redefined Australian crime fiction</b>
<b><i>Peace</i> is a very impressive piece of crime fiction. There has been a lot of fuss about Australian rural noir in recent years, but few, if any, do it better than Disher</b>
<b>Disher is the gold standard for rural noir</b>
<b>The stories are complex without being complicated, the writing pared down yet run with rich seams of character and place. The Hirsch novels are Disher'
<b><i>Peace</i> is rural noir at its best</b>
<b>An atmospheric and nail-biting novel by one of Australia'
<b>The great thing about these books is their sheer believability and attention to detail. Hirsch himself is a fine creation. [An] immersive and addictive book</b>
