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 brooch'and perhaps the girl'that 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 rules'even if it means a reckoning somewhere far from home. In a murky world where the cops are robbers, old-style criminal Wyatt positively shines.

"Wyatt erbeutet bei einem Einbruch in dem Haus einer Politikerin $ 50.000 und ein gesuchtes Schmuckstück und hat bald nicht nur die Polizei, sondern auch dubiose Typen am Hals. Doch in diesem Spiel bestimmt Wyatt die Regeln, und Angriff ist die beste Verteidigung. Fernab der Heimat, auf einem Anwesen an den Klippen des tropischen Südseehafens Port Vila, macht er den Drahtzieher ausfindig. Garry Disher wurde 1949 im Süden Australiens geboren und wuchs auf einer Farm auf. Auf sein Konto gehen preisgekrönte Kinderbücher, klassische Romane, Sachbücher und Crime Fiction. Hierzulande gelang ihm mit Letzterem auf Anhieb der Durchbruch: Sein Romandebüt GIER um den Berufsverbrecher Wyatt wurde 2000 mit dem Deutschen Krimipreis ausgezeichnet, genauso wie 2002 sein erster Polizeiroman DRACHENMANN. Zuletzt erschien: ROSTMOND. Garry Disher lebt mit seiner Familie auf der Mornington Halbinsel."
