Description
By the author of *The Health Farm Murders” and “The Beach-Front Murders”
Sergeant Tom Howard is sent to Grafton and Armidale in northern N.S.W. to investigate a bizarre series of murders. The victims-managers of youth hostels in Casino, Tenterfield and Coffs Harbour-are all employed by a mysterious society, the Bruning Brotherhood.
The local farmers are convinced the killings are the work of a “demon”; the local police are hunting for a hitchhiking maniac but Tom Howard believes the killer is sheltered by the Bruning Brothers themselves . . .
This book was previously announced as “The Youth Club Murders”.
“A strong plot with plenty of action and excitement (plus some well-timed touches of humor); realistic settings, peopled with convincing characters who express themselves in pithily Australian, true-to-life dialogue-these are the very successful ingredients of another taut, suspenseful novel by the author who has previously entertained readers world-wide with ‘The Health Farm Murders’ and ‘The Beach-Front Murders’.”
Hardcover, 158 pages. In very good pre-loved condition. Signed by the author.
