Slaughter Park

The Belltree Trilogy, Book 3

Harry Belltree's obsessive pursuit of justice has cost him everything – his job in homicide, his marriage and his newborn child. He has nothing left to lose, or so he thinks. Then his estranged wife disappears, leaving their baby daughter behind.

The police think Jenny has murdered a man. Harry thinks she's in danger.

When severed limbs are found dangling from the branches of trees in a suburban park, Harry's former colleagues are pulled off Jenny's case. It's up to Harry to track his missing wife down on his own. And to lay bare, at last, the extraordinary conspiracy that led to his parents' murder.

Reseñas de la Crítica

'It's an impressive conclusion to an epic tale ... Maitland delivers and so much more.' (Sydney Morning Herald)

'This taut and haunting story ... the Belltree novels are almost hypnotically compelling. A stunning conclusion to a remarkable trilogy.' (Booklist)

'It's an impressive conclusion to an epic tale ... Taken as a whole, these three crime novels constitute an extended commentary on some of the more pressing moral issues facing Australia. These include dealing with a reprehensible past and the ongoing impact of the stolen generation, as well as the obligation to defend a fragile environment from commercial exploitation.' (The Age)

'Fans of hard-hitting crime fiction will be sorry to see the last of Harry.' (Publishers Weekly)
