Something Fishy

by Shane Maloney

Reader: Tiriel Mora

Even in the political wilderness, hope springs eternal for the Hon. Murray Whelan MP. He has found true love with the auburn-haired Lyndal Luscombe. And she has in her bag an ultrasound photo that bears an uncanny resemblance to Murray.

But a happy man makes an easy target and fate is taking aim. Before long Murray's world is on its head and he is on the trail of a killer.
When summer offers the chance of a break at the beach, the Member for Melbourne Upper takes it. But there's something else in the air apart from the smell of salt, hot chips and sunscreen. There's an unmistakable whiff of something fishy.

Shane Maloney's other novels include Stiff, The Brush-Off, winner of the Ned Kelly Prize for Crime Fiction, Nice Try and The Big Ask.

Tiriel Mora is best known for his film and television work including
