THE WIDOWS OF BROOME - Arthur Upfield


 










Two widows are murdered in the Western Australian pearl town of Broome, with the killer escaping  without leaving a clue for the police.

Detective Inspector Napoleon (Bony) Bonaparte is sent to investigate , while he is there there is a third murder.

This is a good Upfield, yes the language is dated, with this originally published in 1950, but these stories need to be enjoyed for what they are and not judged by what some 25 year in 2021 thinks the language and views of the characters should be.
