Few Australian crime writers are as prolific as Garry Disher. Though best known for his eight Wyatt novels, he also authors the seven-strong Challis and Destry series and has published a number of stand-alone crime titles. Under the Cold Bright Lightsis his latest stand-alone effort, and it’s one of Disher’s best. Recently brought out of retirement to work on cold cases with the Victoria Police, Acting Sargeant Alan Auhl is juggling three investigations, getting to know his new work partner Claire Pascal and giving shelter to a mother and daughter fleeing domestic abuse. Though a talented and driven policeman and a caring father and friend, Auhl has what he acknowledges as a ‘retributive darkness’ in his soul, which prompts him into vigilante-like acts that may well come back to haunt him. This complex and compelling story begs a sequel; let’s hope one eventuates.
