'A superb chronicler of cop culture' - SUNDAY TIMES 'Disher is the gold standard for rural noir' - CHRIS HAMMER 'The equal of Joseph Wambaugh and James Lee Burke' - THE TIMES EVERY MAN HAS A BREAKING POINT Calm never lasts on the Mornington Peninsula, especially for Detective Inspector Hal Challis. Today, he's dealing with a serial armed robber, a brutal home invasion and a mysterious cat burglar, not to mention the offender disguised in a police uniform stalking his beat. But with Sergeant Ellen Destry away, a boss who's more committed to budget cuts than police work, and a team that struggle to separate personal lives from professional duties, one more case could be enough to push Challis to breaking point. From the multiple Ned Kelly Award-winning author of Consolation and Sanctuary comes the sixth Hal Challis investigation, for readers of Jane Harper, Ian Rankin and Chris Hammer.
