Book Launch: Laws are like Cobwebs (John Tully)
About
Join us for the launch by Pierre Slicer, AO, retired Supreme Court judge, Tasmania and Samoa of the new book in the Jack Martin series by Tasmanian author John Tully 'Laws are like Cobwebs'. DCI Jack Martin has always tried to do the right thing. Can the police force say the same?As a fire at a waste dump sends a cloud of toxic smoke over Melbourne, Jack Martin, the well-read Tasmanian detective in John Tully's Dark Clouds on the Mountain and On Shipstern Bluff, is brought in to unravel a tangle of corruption. Set in Melbourne, 1998 during a spate of gangland murders. As Jack and his team investigate, they uncover a toxic web of illegal waste disposal, forced labour, fraud and police corruption that goes to the very top and forces Jack to reevaluate his career and take a stand.
John Tully is an Australian historian and novelist. He lives in the far south of Tasmania. He grew up in Tasmanian hydro construction towns after emigrating with his parents as a child from the UK.
