MODERATORS
Murray Whelanseries by Shane Maloney - Murray is a political aide to a labour MP in state parliament who has to solve a murder before it (generally) brings down the government or he gets murdered. Also a series of films startting David Wenham (and directed by John Clarke)
Death in Brunswick by Boyd Oxlade - it's set in Brunswick and is a little weird to be honest and the main character is definetly not likable. Movie stars Sam Neill and John Clarke co stars
The Holiday Murders by Robert Gott - set in 1943, there's 4 books in the series (though by the end of the second book I was done with it). There hasn't been a movie about this one, presumably because John Clarke didn't read it
I've read death in Brunswick! Classic!
