Rowland Sinclair is an artist and a gentleman.

In Australia's 1930s, the Sinclair name is respectable and influential, yet Rowland has a talent for scandal. He relies on the Sinclair fortune to indulge his artistic passions and friends: a poet, a painter and a brazen sculptress.

Mounting tensions fuelled by the Great Depression take Australia to the brink of revolution, but Rowland Sinclair is indifferent to the politics...until a brutal murder exposes an extraordinary and treasonous conspiracy.

Sydney in the 30's. Rural NSW in the 30's.The characters enter stage with faults and foibles and discover a world 'gone mad' with Old and New Guards, (Conservatives and Nazi) rising to defend Australia from the Left Wing and Communists. There is talk of Civil War.

'put the cricket bat down Mick'.

With a favorite uncle dead and best friend almost left for dead and branded, something has to done.
Good story.

It seemed not very original to me, the characters silly and immature, but others may like it.

Not sure how this ended up in my queue - I had read The Woman in the Library and while I had liked it, I certainly did not love it ... was so confused when this book started out and was radically different from the other in setting, time period, style and well, every other way?! But it turned out to be a wonderful new (old) adventure! Love all the Australian details, including the NonAmerican/NonBritish insight into the 1930s. Usually not a fan of male narrators - I find they often have a hard time avoiding caricature female voices; however, this hits the mark for me (maybe it's the accent!?). In any event, I'm currently devouring Book 2 - yum, yum!

Stumbled Upon this Gem!

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Cut back on some of the details of the political rallies, etc. The descriptions seemed to go on forever. I got to the point where I fast forwarded a few times.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I liked that fact that the chapters started with actual newspaper stories.

Too much history, not enough story

Very disappointed in the way this was categorized and described. It is NOT a murder mystery. It’s more like historical fiction about political movements that happens to have a murder in it. Most of the story isn’t about the murder or trying to solve it. The characters were unlikable to me and hard to care about. Maybe for someone who wanted historical fiction it would be great. Please change the description tags

Not a murder mystery, not even crime fiction really

I couldn’t follow this at all! Got about a third of the way in and gave up.

Where’s the storyline?
