AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Kimberley Kill is the third in The Kimberley Trilogy of Australian adventure novels which span the first, second and, yet to come, third world war.

'Frustrated by its inability to acquire sufficient energy to power its ever expanding economy, China has invaded Russia, annexing the Siberian oil and gas fields and precipitating World War Three.

'A key satellite communication base in the Kimberley is threatened by invading Indonesian special forces. All that stands in their way is a small Norforce patrol backed by an Aboriginal tribe, whose female leader is intent on avenging the murder of her father, their Elder, and the desecration of their Wandjina guardian.

'Three strong-minded and determined people—the devout Muslim leader of the Indonesian Kopassus force, the MIT-trained daughter of an assassinated Aboriginal elder and the middle-aged, former SAS Anglo, gas platform engineer and part-time leader of the Norforce patrol—strive to assert and impose their conflicting beliefs and loyalties when they clash in a chase across the Kimberley wilderness.'
