BiographyHistory

'Simon Bryant grew up on a farm, a soldier settler block in the South East of South Australia. After graduating with an English Literature degree from Adelaide University, he has pursued a number of paths, including farming, managing a radio station, working in tourism, and most recently, an extended spell in the public service in Canberra. Now retired, he is dedicating his time to a life-long interest in creative writing, and, in particular, to writing historical Australian fiction.' (Source: Amazon)

'High in the stand at the MCG, the Holloway family settle in to watch their beloved Carlton play the mighty Collingwood Magpies. A beautiful winter's day, their son Alfie playing happily at their feet, and always the promise of victory; for Harry and Effie, life seems very agreeable.

'But death abruptly intrude, Inspector Holloway is required to investigate, and a chain of events is set off that will send shock waves through Melbourne's football community. A famous club is faced with a calamitous scandal as the inquiry leads Harry into the seedy world of Melbourne's illegal gambling culture.

'Harry's detective powers are severely tested as he confronts a desperate and formidable adversary. And as always, Effie is on hand to support her husband, with forthright and sometimes unsolicited advice.'
