A Peter Temple Omnibus by Peter Temple
The Broken Shore: A convalescing homicide detective returns to his hometown only to find his recovery interrupted by a case that leaves him standing alone, fighting against corruption and prejudice. In the Evil Day: Five people lie dead on the floor of a fortified Johannesburg mansion. In his hands the solitary survivor holds his death warrant. Powerful men - and powerful nations will kill to keep to keep the video tape in Con Niemand's grasp buried. The tape and the man must be erased...An Iron Rose: When country blacksmith Mac Farraday's best friend is found hanging, the assumption is he's committed suicide. But Mac is far from convinced: he's a man who has learned - the hard way - never to accept things at face value.
