Ruthless Obsession

A Silver Dingo Mystery

K.A.Hudson

Alone in my prison, I ignored the cold rising from the uncomfortable slab beneath me and gave up the fight against the memories. They crowded in and made themselves at home. I marvelled at the small unimportant incidents in life that determine the path a person’s future will take. My path to murder started when I forgot to set my alarm.

RUTHLESS OBSESSION IS AN INTRICATE TALE WOVEN AROUND THE LUST FOR MONEY AND POWER, OBSESSIVE AND BRUTAL DESIRES, AND UNSTINTING LOVE IN WHICH THE SILVER DINGO, DETECTIVE ROSIE BLOOM, MUST UNRAVEL A COMPLEX CASE OF COUNTERFEIT, ASSAULT AND MURDER. FOR HER IT’S PERSONAL – BECAUSE FAMILY IS INVOLVED.

Well of Bones

A Silver Dingo Mystery

K.A.Hudson

A woman wakes to find herself trapped in the bottom of a dry disused well surrounded by bones. She has no memory of events before this moment but her fate and that of a huge Kimberley cattle station are bizarrely entwined.

Rivers Run Station owner Charlie Morgan has his hands full looking after his sprawling property and the last thing he needs is people taking pot shots at his cattle.

Detective Rosie Bloom, affectionately known as the Silver Dingo to all but herself, has been seconded to this rugged corner of the Kimberley to investigate a spate of local troubles. Not long after her arrival the local troubles morph into something far more sinister and the Silver Dingo is now confronted with the prospect of a murderer on the loose.

K.A. Hudson has proved herself a budding storyteller, weaving a suspenseful and intriguing thriller into the alluring and breathtaking landscape of the Australian Outback.

She breathes intense life into her characters, some endearing or sympathetic, others loathsome or vile, but the prose is always captivating and the action fully charged.

Well of Bones is Hudson’s second novel, and like the first, Constant Fear, is set in regional Australia.

Constant Fear

STRENGTH COMES FROM WITHIN

K.A.Hudson

A soul is only lost until it is found.

Melbourne, 1970 – bustling, cosmopolitan and undeniably exciting for a young woman fresh from the Apple Isle. But beneath the veneer of a city on the move is a sinister underbelly of cops on the take, standover thugs and illegal gambling dens into which a confident but naïve Constance O’Hara unwittingly falls.

Stuck in a spiral of crime and violence, Constance’s attempts to break free result in a brutal attack…and the belief she has killed her assailant.

Hunted and in constant fear for her life, Constance assumes a new identity and flees across the continent to Western Australia’s Goldfields to start a new life. But the past has long shadows and when her old life catches up with her, Constance must fight to save herself, the life she has created and those she loves.

From the Derwent to Lygon Street to the dust and flies of Kalgoorlie and the deep loam of the Swan Valley, K.A. Hudson has created an enthralling story with a wonderfully authentic and likeable main character, whose plight grips our hearts and seizes our attention. Hudson’s sense of the dramatic, as well as her feel for the Australian character and landscape, makes this an irrepressible read.
