Gumshoe Dude with an Australian Flag

Australian Highlights

The austere Australian landscape is a perfect backdrop for dramatic crime fiction stories: the remoteness of the settlements; small communities that may harbour deep secrets; the classic frontier spirit of the bush that hinders rather than supports detective investigations.

Though much better known for hard-hitting noir-ish Outback-inspired tales, there are also a few Australian authors with lighter takes on the classic mystery genre.

Here are all books set in Australia in the Gumshoe Catalogue.
