About this book
It all started with a ruthless murder. An ex-boxer and petty police informer was efficiently disposed of, sending a ghastly warning to others. That would have been the end of it, had not a shark, in a million-to-one chance, vomited up the victim's arm in an aquarium and shone an unwelcome light into some very dark places. With so much at stake, the guilty closed ranks and gradually, with intimidation, money, and the murder of a mate who they feared would betray them, they re-imposed their control and the light was turned off again. The memory of those events, and the terrible fear they inspired, kept those who knew the truth silent unto the grave. Others have written about the Shark Arm murder, and it has even been the topic of an episode of
My Favorite Murder. Now the authors, having digested the entire cold-case police file, reveal an extraordinary tale of high-class smuggling, a frantic cover-up and the truth behind one of the most infamous cases in Australia.
