About this listen

By a lonely roadside in the south-west corner of Western Australia, old-timer Karl Mueller is roused from his drink sodden sleep by approaching footsteps and the sound of whistling. What he sees on waking (or thinks he sees) is enough to make him stiffen with fear, and more than enough to worry the police into calling for Detective-Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte. The disturber of Mueller's rest is Marvin Rhudder - once an upstanding theological student, now a convicted rapist and basher and a bloody savage whose recapture will put all of Bony's sleuthing and tracking skills to the test.©1961 Bonaparte Holdings Ltd.

Editor reviews

The 26th installment of Arthur Upfield’s classic series featuring the shrewd half-Aborigine detective follows Bony, posing as a station manager on a fishing vacation, in his pursuit of former respected theology student turned unrepentant rapist Marvin Rhudder.

Peter Hosking’s lush delivery brings the idyllic southwestern Australian coast to life, and he shows the ability to nimbly shift tones as Upfield builds to his tension-filled climax as the wizened and cunning Bony, with the help of local Aboriginals, stops at nothing to get his man.
