The Barrakee mystery
Upfield, Arthur W. (Arthur William), 1888-1964, author1929 - 2016
Why was the redoubtable King Henry, an Aborigine from Western Australia, killed during a thunderstorm in New South Wales? What was the feud that led to murder after nineteen long years had passed? And who was the woman who saw the murder and kept silent? This first story of Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte, the half-aborigine detective, takes him to a sheep station in the Darling River bush country where he encounters those problems he understands so well, mixed blood and divided loyalties.
