[Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte 24] • Bony and the Black Virgin

Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte, the half-aborigine detective, arrives in the drought-stricken outback of New South Wales. At a desolate sheep station two men have been savagely beaten to death. Clues are scarce in the sun-baked, sand-blown country. But Bony's understanding of the bush and the people who live there--both black and white--leads him inexorably to the killer. As rain floods the parched land, Bony's premonition of disaster is fulfilled.
