Reviews

‘The Brock and Kolla novels are among the best crime fiction being written today.’
*Canberra Times*

‘Brock and Kolla, a pair of crime fiction’s finest.’
*The Age*

'A mysterious manuscript, a brutal murder, a revenge plot, and a colourful cast of characters make this mystery a fast-paced, entertaining listen ... Voce's distinct character voices and tense pacing keep listeners engaged with the story's twists and turns.'
