AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'MURDER SIXTIES STYLE It is 1968. The Vietnam War is raging and so is Women's' Liberation. In Sydney, Australia, university lecturer, peace activist and women's liberationist Charmaine Shaw is making enemies. Student and admirer Sue English is not one of them. As she listens to Charmaine her perspective on life begins to change. When Charmaine is killed, Sue needs to know who has killed her and why. The trouble is there is no shortage of suspects and it's hard to know who to trust. Sue can't help playing detective, despite discouragement by the remarkably attractive police inspector.

'MURDER SEVENTIES STYLE It is November 1975. Australia has been thrown into political upheaval by the sacking of the Prime Minister, Gough Whitlam. At her high school, teacher Susan Ross is thrown into her own state of turmoil following the murder of the Science Master. Who killed him? The school's bad boy? The Headmaster? The impeccable school captain? The rather vague English Master? Sue must find out.'

Murder Sixties Style : Liberated of Life, Anne Hawking , single work novel crime

'It is 1968. In the United States, Martin Luther King has just been assassinated.

'In Sydney, Australia, university lecturer and women's liberationist Charmaine Shaw is making enemies. Student and admirer Sue English is not amongst them. As she listens to Charmaine her perspective on life begins to change. When Charmaine is killed, Sue faces the problem of who has killed her and why. The problem is there is no shortage of suspects and it is hard to know who to trust. Even fellow student Rod, first bloke she kissed, doesn't seem exempt from suspicion.

'Sue can't help playing detective, despite discouragement by the remarkable attractive police inspector, Gerry Ross, who definitely doesn't want her to become the second body in the case...'

Murder Seventies Style : The Final Dismissal, Anne Hawking , single work novel crime

'It is November 12, 1975. Australia has been thrown into political upheaval with the sacking the previous day of Gough Whitlam as Prime Minister. At Balmain Boys High School, teacher Susan Ross is plunged into her own state of turmoil following the murder of the school's science master - gassed in his own laboratory. Who killed him? The problem is there is no shortage of people who might have wanted him dead: the school's bad boy, the headmaster, the impeccable school captain, the rather vague English master - and that's just the beginning.'
