New Blue Mountains crime novel - OrphanRock

New Blue Mountains crime novel

Last year's The Problem with Murder was a bestseller here in the Blue Mountains. Now Michael Duffy has written a sequel, The Strange Death of Paul Ruel. It drips with drama and local colour, including death after falling from a great height.

Local newspaper editor Bella Greaves investigates the connection between a fatal accident and the glamorous owner of a Katoomba fashion label.

Meanwhile her friend, disgraced detective Paul Ruel, believes his life is in danger. His bosses think he’s imagining things – or maybe they just don’t care. When disaster strikes, it is left to Bella to discover what happened.

‘When I think of the mean streets - I think of Katoomba.’
 Michael Rowbotham

 

 

You can see the trailer for the new book at the Our Videos part of this site.

Available now from these wonderful Mountains' stores: The Turning Page, Megalong Books, Everglades House & Gardens, The Little Lost Bookshop, Hydro Majestic Pavilion, Gleebooks.

If you can't get to one of these fine establishments, you can buy it from our store here on Orphan Rock. But the real stores are best!

Here is a pic of author Michael Duffy offering his first crime novel at the Blackheath Growers Market last Christmas. Note the name of his wheelbarrow, which is just as it came from Bunnings.
