From the bustling port town of Luganville to the idyllic beaches and azure waters of Santo, George and Jayline tirelessly pursue leads but find themselves entangled in a web of confusion with no clear motive, weapon, or suspect in sight.
Praise for the series ... a tour de force both in its vivid descriptions of warts-and-all Vanuatu and its ability to suck the reader into the frustrating investigation of its likeable detective. A thoroughly enjoyable read. - Colin Cotterill, best-selling crime fiction author
I was really intrigued because the place setting is an integral “character” of the book. - Emily Webb, best-selling author.
O autoru
Matt Francis is an Australian based academic with a love of Vanuatu and the Pacific. He has spent the last two decades researching and writing about this part of the world. Matt Francis began his career working for an international aid agency and has undertaken development-based work across Asia and the Pacific. In this award-winning crime novel series set in Vanuatu, Matt Francis introduces Sergeant George Wong and Constable Jayline Oli of the Vanuatu Police Force. George and Jayline travel across the six provinces of Vanuatu solving murders that involve international geopolitics, local kastoms, colonial legacies and natural hazards. Solving crimes in resource-poor Vanuatu relies on basic policing and building trust and relationships with local communities. While George is masterful at the first, it is up to Jayline to provide the later.
