Publisher Description
'Tough, fast and hard – my kind of book.' Lee Child
In the drought-ridden rangelands of Western Australia, Gabe Ahern makes his living trapping wild dogs for local station owners.
Still coming to terms with his wife’s death – and the part he played in it – the old bushman leads a solitary life. Until one morning, when he rescues a young Afghan man, Amin, from certain execution.
Now, with a gang of people smugglers on his tail and the lives of Amin's family on the line, Gabe is drawn into a ruthless game of cat and mouse. His main opponent is Chase Fowler, a kangaroo hunter with bush skills as wily and sharp as his own.
As the old dogger and roo-shooter go head to head, Gabe will need all his cunning to come out of this alive…

Surprised
Pretty damn good read
Great read
A wonderful book, very factual. During the read I was so engrossed that it was as though I was actually there.
I plan on reading all of his books
Wild Dogs
Absorbing, disturbing, and compelling. The setting for this tale is an unfamiliar one to the majority of Australians and yet strangely familiar. The events are disturbing, yet logical in a perverse way. It could all be true. The finely-drawn characters ( good, bad and questionable) are believable and sympathetically portrayed.
Highly recommended
