Complete Dirty Works

Detective Pete Young, at twenty-two the youngest detective in South Australian police history. He's lifting the lid on all sorts of Dirty Work going on, right under his nose. Headline City. Priest Under Pump-Rock Band on Make-Family Business Hard Hit-Celebrity Chefs on Outer-Writer Grinds Axe-Builders Stir Pot-Pastor's New Take on Old Theme-Murders To Go. A couple of miracles tossed into the mix, then stirred. And that's just the humans. “Dirty Work”: Hard-boiled detective parody, dishing out the facts of life, shithouse though most of them are. Like it or lump it. Whatever you happen to be.

Det. Pete Young, at 23 still the youngest detective in South Australian police history, faces his biggest challenge to date. He's about to cop what every dick worth his salt needs-an Arch Nemesis—namely, Chad Oldman-social security recipient, reality TV addict, and cover-band member. He's going to prove to be a tough nut to crack. On the side-a bunch of anonymous texters put the squeeze on a comely continental celebrity chef while a covert surveillance team member cooks up a cool recipe for blackmail. There's More Dirty Work than ever and as usual, that's just the humans. The hard-boiling continues.
