Description

Cliff Hardy starts out to help a friend but before long he’s looking for an enemy – William Mountain: boozer, TV scriptwriter, would-be novelist who is missing and searching for adventure. Mountain’s adventure is Hardy’s ‘case’ which rapidly becomes a case he would rather not have. Mountain is the dealer in a deadly game and the hands he deals become more and more bizarre.

Indigenous thrillers are better than any others, and the best of all are Peter Corris’ accounts of his Sydney private detective, Cliff Hardy. Corris’ story is clever, his asides wry, his language rough but whimsical.’ – Mark Thomas, Canberra Times

‘.Of Peter Corris it can be said ”One sentence and the reader is away.”’ – Manning Clark, The National Times

‘Cliff Hardy is. as Australian as two-up and Fosters.’ – The Australian

⭐ The laconic style of the writer and detective is endearing and easy to read. Great Aussie context too. I like Corris.

⭐ Very good but could see the end too soon needed a lit bit more in the finish where is Erica

⭐ well worth reading

⭐ Called by his friend Terry to find the rental cars he’d had stolen from his used car lot, Cliff Hardy thought it would be a simple case to solve. But the involvement of William Mountain, an acquaintance whom Hardy had never liked for his boozy, sadistic ways meant more trouble than it was worth. Mountain was a psychotic, egotistical person who thought he was a great writer – he had yet to prove his worth…and he was missing.The arrival on the scene of Mountain’s girlfriend, Emily Fong set alarm bells ringing in Hardy’s head. But Emily was desperate to find Mountain so joined forces with Hardy. The escalation of violence and danger shocked Hardy – he realised there had to be something more to the situation than just a simple case of car theft.Enter the drug world of inner Sydney and in many cases the person wouldn’t get out. Was that to be the way for Hardy? He was in too deep and desperately wanted not to be – but he had more at stake; much more…Deal Me Out by Aussie author Peter Corris is #9 in the Cliff Hardy series and not one of the best I’ve read. Violent, graphic, filled with blood and gore – plus the bending of the law and turning a blind eye to the horrors. Smoking and heavy drinking seemed to be the norm as well. It’s a great series though and I enjoy Hardy’s tough and resilient character; his utter determination to solve the case he’s on and will definitely read more.

⭐ A great read with all the familiar sights and smells of inner Sydney. My only complaint is that I thought it ended too quickly.
