Last Breath

Sergeant Downs, or Sarge as he preferred, was minding his own business in the Cairns police station in Far North Queensland, Australia, when a stranger entered his life. Blessed with a photographic memory and a doggedness of purpose, Sarge was finally able to place the person and answer why warning bells were sounding in the deep recesses of his mind. To quell that nagging annoying noise he embarked on a journey that would take him half way across Australia to the outback town of Coober Pedy and then into outback far north Queensland. In the process he would solve the years’ old mystery of two missing opal miners. Had he in fact uncovered the real truth though?
Author’s note:
This is the first in the Downs Crime Mystery Series. Each book in the series can be read in isolation in any order. However, when read in sequence, greater understanding of the traits of the lead characters is gained.
