Our genre choice for January - chosen by the mod squad - is MYSTERY/THRILLER

Our choices are:

A Stranger in My Street by Deborah Burrows A Stranger in My Street by Deborah Burrows (Historical Mystery)

It's January 1943. Australia is at war and Perth is buzzing.

US troops have permanently docked in the city in what local men refer to bitterly as the American occupation, and Perth women are having the time of their lives. The Americans have money, accents like movie stars, smart tailored uniforms and good manners. What's more, they love to dance and show a girl a good time, and young women are throwing caution to the wind and pushing social boundaries with their behaviour.

Suddenly, Meg finds herself embroiled in the murder mystery, and increasingly involved with Tom Lagrange. But is he all that he seems? And what exactly was his relationship with the dead woman?



Dangerous Associations by Rita Lee Chapman Dangerous Associations by Rita Lee Chapman (Mystery/Thriller)

An ex-husband, a new love, a stalker. Cathy Thompson’s link to her ex-husband fills
her life with threats and intimidation. She must either trap her stalker or find Geoffrey to put an end to her life of fear.


The Soldier's Curse (The Monsarrat Series #1) by Meg Keneally The Soldier's Curse by Meg Keneally (Historical Mystery)

A fast-paced, witty and gripping historical crime series from Tom Keneally and his eldest daughter Meg.

In the Port Macquarie penal settlement for second offenders, at the edge of the known world, gentleman convict Hugh Monsarrat hungers for freedom. Originally transported for forging documents passing himself off as a lawyer, he is now the trusted clerk of the settlement's commandant.
