    Peter Temple
    Peter Temple is the author of nine novels, including four books in the Jack Irish series. He has won the Ned Kelly Award for Crime Fiction five times, and his widely acclaimed novels have been published in over twenty countries. "The Broken Shore" won the UK’s prestigious Duncan Lawrie Dagger for the best crime novel of 2007 and was made into an ABC telemovie in 2014. Truth won the 2010 Miles Franklin Literary Award, the first time a crime writer has won an award of this caliber anywhere in the world. Temple’s first two novels "Bad Debts" and "Black Tide" have been made into films with Guy Pearce starring as Jack Irish.




    White Dog: A Jack Irish Thriller (4)
    by Peter Temple (Author)
    4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (303)

    Mickey Franklin was shot dead in his shower on a Saturday evening. Before long, his girlfriend - Sarah Longmore - was in custody. She had a gun and a key, and a witness placed her at the scene. Plus, she'd recently discovered that Mickey was screwing her sister: hardly a locked-room mystery, then, on the face of things. 'Andrew says you're a lawyer who does other things... Finds people, witnesses, things like that' Truth be told, Jack Irish hasn't found much of late. Unless you count the joys of Schubert and home cooking as discoveries, that is. So, when he is asked to take a look into Sarah Longmore's defence, he's more than happy to oblige. After all, it shouldn't take much time and effort: if she seems that guilty, the chances are that she probably is. However, Sarah's case will prove to be far from straightforward, and Jack's investigation far from quick and painless. The fourth book in the Jack Irish series, White Dog has all the elements - wit, supple prose, gripping action and laconic dialogue - that have made Peter Temple one of the world's premier crime writers.

    I just finished Bosch.
    Thought it was good.
    Each series has been consistently good.
    Sad to see the end of the Legacy series.
    I thought there was loads more mileage in Bosch the PI.

    As they introduced Ballard in episode 10, I assume that is where they are going next.
    He has a new book out next month which is based on a completely new character.
    I posted it on the books thread.

    This was on BBC2 yesterday exposing the fake people behind the scam including an 'Eyebrow Technician From Essex' it's worth a watch.

    Hunting the Whisky Bandits.

    Reporter Sam Poling investigates the fraudsters lurking in the shadows of Scotland's £7billion whisky industry, going undercover to learn more about crime's latest money-spinner - cask whisky investment. She meets people duped by the criminals into handing over - and losing - all of their savings and goes on the trail of the missing millions. After uncovering an international criminal network, secretly filming a convicted con-artist and tracking down a shady businessman with a dark past, Sam confronts those at the heart of it.

    Lol @ "Eyebrow Technician".

    Sadly, I guess some fall for it.

    They were well planned and executed scams, not just your average dodgy website/fake e-mail fronts that most people could suss out.
