Port Vila Blues
Port Vila Blues | Garry Disher
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
Wyatt, the cool, ever-evasive thief, snatches the cash easily enough. He bypasses the alarm system, eludes the cops, makes it safely back to his hideout in Hobart. It's the diamond-studded Tiffany broochand perhaps the girlthat undoes him. Now some very hard people want to put Wyatt and that brooch out of circulation. But this is Wyatt's game and Wyatt sets the ruleseven if it means a reckoning somewhere far from home. In a murky world where the cops are robbers, old-style criminal Wyatt positively shines.

Finished my #HandbagBook while waiting for my daughter at the optometrist. I've had the book for years but I've never read Disher before. I enjoyed this tale of crooked cops, corrupt magistrates and relatively honourable criminals. The female characters were better than average for this kind of thing, but I could have done without the apparently compulsory random sex scene.

LeahBergen And what will your next #HandbagBook be? 😄 5y
CarolynM @LeahBergen Good question. My usual handbag only fits small books, so I might go for another old one that's been sitting on the shelf for awhile. I probably won't decide until next week. (edited) 5y
