Dark Clouds on the Mountain by John Tully

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Previous owner has signed inside pages.

John Tully’s Dark Clouds on the Mountain is a finely written detective story that carries its reader along with an intriguing plot, a gallery of memorable characters, and strange presentiments of evil. Through this last quality, Tully reveals the old Hobart Town that still lies behind the modern Hobart.

This gives the novel a dimension in time that does not detract from the immediacy of its portrayal of social, family and political disturbance in the contemporary world. Its fast-moving narrative takes us into the heart of a Tasmania as much embroiled in the contemporary globe as in its particular past. (publisher blurb)
