Publisher Description
Two old scallywags break a silly law to "prove" the extinct Tasmanian Tiger lives on.
But that's just for starters in this six-novel bundle based on the island of Tasmania at the bottom of Australia.
The two octogenarians don't just want to alter the course of ecological history. They also want to make sure the former mayor gets what he deserves.
They take a detour to Ireland, where one of them inherits a castle and descends into a whole lot of trouble, and return home just in time for the pandemic. This leads to three miserable months stuck in a tiny house with a hitman and another Tasmanian Tiger for company.
1. LIE OF THE TIGER
Windy Mountain is a one-dog town because of a law the mayor rammed through years ago. But it's a law two old men will need to break.
2. BLOKES ON A PLANE
When the nasty old mayor disappears, someone starts stealing local landmarks from the quirky little town, and no one else seems to be overly concerned, two old men go from being unlikely tourists to unlikely sleuths.
3. WHITEY AND THE SIX DWARFS
Even when they're not there, the old men are complicating things. Find out how in this funny whodunnit.
Oodles, Wish-Wash and The Mayor have gone to Ireland to research family history, and have washed their hands of the Tasmanian Tiger Museum.
4. BLOKES IN DONEGAL
St Patrick might have been so busy chasing snakes that he overlooked banishing Tasmanian Tigers from Ireland.
This might explain how one ends up under the kitchen sink in the fourth book of the Windy Mountain series.
5. BLOKES IN THE HOUSE
Nobody warned the three old men that hitmen and Tasmanian Tigers were going into lockdown with them!
6. WHO KNEW TIGER SHARKS ALSO EAT APPLES?
When someone threatens to spoil Christmas by demolishing the town's Art Deco cafe, it's time to take sides.
The proposed replacement is an ugly commercial building that would tower over the district.
